Mansfield
A rural gateway town at the foot of Mount Buller, with bakeries, pubs, ski rental shops, and a historic main street. It serves as the hub for accommodation and supplies.
Mansfield lies about 45 km west of Mount Buller and serves as the gateway to the ski resort, Mount Stirling, and Lake Eildon. Along High Street, the main street, you’ll find old hotels, bakeries, cafés, and ski rental shops. In the middle of the road stands a Police Memorial, honoring the officers killed in the 1878 Kelly Gang shootout. Surrounding the town are cattle farms and vineyards, and each November the town hosts the High Country Festival. During ski season, staying in town is cheaper than staying on the mountain, and daily buses run to the resort, taking about an hour.
