Things To Do

In Winter Falls Creek is an easy 40 minute drive from Alpenhorn for guests interested in Snow Sports at Australia's leading Ski Resort. In the non-winter months there is great mountain biking to be had on the tracks at Big Hill Mountain Bike Park. The Kiewa River, and associated pondages and dams, offers great challenges to those interested in trout fishing. These are also great venues for picnics and BBQs. There is exceptional bush walking to be experienced in the Alpine National Park and adjoing State Forrests. There are some very interesting walks to be had on the Bogong High Plains where walkers can experience the History oh the Cattlean's huts as well as the unique Alpine Flora and Fauna. The Mount Beauty 18 hole Golf Course is spread over a hillside overlooking the township and the Kiewa Valley. The course is physically demanding but players are rewrded by excellent views. The hills above the Kiewa Valley offer Para/Hang-glider pilots some exceptional flying opportunities. Mount Emu, visible from the balconies at Alpenhorn, attracts hang-glider pilots from around the world in January each year. For those not quite so adventurous, but still excited by the prospect of "soaring with the eagles" the local Gliding Club offers trial Instructional Flights from the Mount Beauty Airstrip. The Kiewa Valley is fortunate to have six wineries offering a great selection of Cool Climate Wines. Most of these also offer daytime meals to accompany your wine tasting experience. There are also some exceptional eateries in the Kiewa Valley, ranging from award winning Restaurants to great value meals from the two hotels and the Mount Beauty Country Club.
