Snow Chains & Parking

To park overnight during your stay, please make sure you have purchased what is called “resort entry”. You can do this online via:
https://www.mthotham.com.au/discover/getting-here/resort-entry-permits

You must carry snow chains and you will be instructed where to fit these on your drive to Hotham.  Further information: https://www.mthotham.com.au/discover/getting-here/chains

Snow chains can be hired from many places in Harrietville or Omeo, including Hoys or Snow Monkey in Collingwood. We recommend you call ahead early to book the right size for your vehicle (you’ll be asked for your wheel size which is on the side of your wheels). If you go with Hoys, your chains are fitted & removed for FREE on the way up the mountain (Harrietville approach). We also recommend Roof Carrier Systems service in Melbourne for when you wish to purchase a set of chains for your vehicle.
