SKIING & SNOWBOARDING
FALLS CREEK TERRAIN
GREEN, BLUE & BLACK
Falls Creek features a massive 450 hectares of skiable terrain - that's the largest of any resort in Victoria. With roughly 90 runs accessed by 14 lifts, there is something to suit everybody's ability.
| Terrain | Green | Blue | Black |
|---|---|---|---|
| Downhill | 17% | 60% | 23% |
| Cross Country | 33% | 48% | 19% |
| Terrain Park Lines | 2 | 2 | 1 |
60% of Falls Creek's terrain are intermediate (blue) runs in what we like to call "progression perfect" terrain. Nowehere else offers such opportunity to improve your your skiing or riding with a gentle step up to a slightly longer, steeper or more technical run.
Those at the beginners end of the spectrum will have great fun in the Drovers area (accessible without putting on skis) and on Wombat's Ramble - Australia's longest green run (at 2.2km).
For the advanced rider the Summit is packed with steep black runs and is the launching pad for the deep powder stashes and tree runs of the Maze.
