The High Country is located in the north-east of Victoria. It is an area that features national parks, Victoria's highest mountains, lakes, snow resorts, vineyards and a rich history including gold discovery, cattlemen and bushrangers. The High Country is home to most of Victoria's major snow and ski resorts including Mount Buller, Falls Creek, Mount Buffalo and Mount Hotham. Outside of the snow season, these mountains provide a good location for bushwalking, horseriding, cycling, scenic driving and fishing.
