Mount Hotham is known as a "serious skiers" mountain, this was in part due to the roads into Hotham and in part due to the nature of the runs at Hotham. The road is improved and is sealed all the way to the village, and the runs, well there are just more of them, lots more. The resort probably has the most variety of advanced and expert runs of any ski resort in Australia (40% of its total skiable area).
The mount has undergone a transformation in recent years, a bridge to carry skiers/boarder across the access road, three new quad chairs, more snowmaking and lots of village developments. Of course, there is a good range of beginners and intermediate skiing/boarding as well, and night skiing is offered on the Big D area.
Lodging is available on the mountain or just nearby at Dinner Plain, Australia's only village above the snowline but not in a national park.
If you want to try something different there is always a helicopter flight across to Falls Creek for days skiing/boarding.
