Summer
Walking and hiking
Falls Creek is a stunning place to be in Summer, as many of our guests will agree. Walking on the high plains surrounded by the beauty of the mottled snow gums and the bright wild flowers is a rare pleasure and a completely different experience to the thrills of the snow. Once you’ve experienced the meditative quality of this unique landscape, you’ll find yourself yearning to come back again.
There are a range of walks to enjoy, from the easy and flat Aqueduct Trail to more challenging day or overnight hikes across the Bogong High Plains. All are within easy walking or driving distance from Chorki.
Mountain biking
Lots of people travel to Falls Creek in the Summer with their mountain bikes in tow. There are loads of trails to choose from to suit different skill and fitness levels. For example, rides range from the easy shared trails along the village aqueducts to more challenging trails that take in Pretty Valley and Howmans Gap. Take the Summit Chairlift to gain access to some of Falls Creek’s best cross-country trails.
Kids Club
If you threw a snowball from Chorki you’d probably hit Falls Creek’s Kids Club, it’s that close! The Kids Club operates from the day shelter at Slalom Plaza, which is just at the bottom of Snowgums Lane. There are activities for primary school aged children running every day from December 26 to January 30, including fishing, face painting, nature walks, cookie decorating, kite making and craft.
Summit Chairlift
It’s exhilarating to experience a chairlift ride to the top of Falls Creek in Summer. The views are incredible and once you’re up the top you can choose from a variety of activities, such as sight-seeing, walking, hiking or mountain biking.
