Alpine Nature Experience

Alpine Nature Experience Alpine Nature Experience will offer a new and unique experience: spending an exclusive and adventuro A memorable night in the snow!

You don’t have to ski or be intrepid to discover the beauty of the Australian Alps. This winter on Mount Hotham, Alpine Nature Experience will offer a new and unique experience: spending an exclusive and adventurous night in the snow. Founder Jean-Francois Rupp will take you on an evening snowshoe adventure through the snow gums to reach his hidden eco-village and central tipi, before sharing some

French cooking tips and assisting guests prepare their own French cheese fondue. Mr Rupp hopes to attract first timers to the snow, families, seminars and school groups. Hailing from the heart of the French alps, Jean-Francois has always wanted to encourage others to discover the beauty of the mountains and experience the snow. Since relocating to Australia in late 2014, he has been looking for the chance to share his passion for the outdoors and alpine activities. “At first I was sceptical of the term “Alps” in Australia, but I love the mountains here, they are more accessible than in France and have an untouched feeling to them”. Mount Hotham was a clear standout for his project due to the striking beauty of the mountain, snow reliability and overall atmosphere.

“For me the snow is about much more than skiing, it’s about the beauty of the scenery, the food, and surrounding yourself in nature” he said. Collaborating with Hoys Skis and Zirky’s, Alpine Nature Experience has received a warm welcome from resort management and local businesses who are keen to see their customers catered for in a new way.

Where will your next adventure take you?

Hidden among the snow gums at Mount Hotham, our cosy alpine eco-village is a world away from the everyday. Slow down, breathe the mountain air, and reconnect with nature in one of Australia's most beautiful wilderness settings.

Sometimes, the best destination isn't the one that's furthest away....

Let's be honest.... We've been pretty lucky with the weather this past week. Sunny days and enough snow for the kids to do some skiing practice and play in the snow.

It's a good time to reflect: We love being a destination for non-skiers, families, and first-time-to-the-snow visitors to come and enjoy a special winter experience.

There is enough snow for snowshoeing into the eco-village, for snowball fights, for building snowmen and the Wire Plain & Dinner Plain Tobogganing has been enjoyed by many families these past few weeks.

There might not be metres of coverage, but we're grateful that we can still welcome our guests and provide a memorable experience.

Our hypedomes: where comfort meets the wilderness.

Spend the night beneath the stars and wake to one of the most unique views in Australia, straight from your bed. Whether it's snow falling outside in winter or birdsong greeting you at sunrise, every stay is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and immerse yourself in nature.

Winter nights are made for this.

There's something special about gathering around a crackling fire while snow falls softly all around you. Warm drinks, toasted marshmallows, star-filled skies and memories that stay with you long after the snow melts.

Escape the everyday and experience the magic of the Australian Alps this winter.
