National Alpine Museum of Australia

A small museum in the Mount Buller village telling the story of Australian skiing and high-country history.

The National Alpine Museum of Australia is housed in a building on the La Trobe University campus in Mount Buller village. Its collection includes vintage skis, winter posters, photographs, and ski club artifacts, and it traces the development of the Victorian High Country, from seasonal cattle grazing by drovers to today’s modern ski resorts. The exhibition space is small, so a visit takes around 30 to 45 minutes, which makes it a good plan for a snowy day or an evening. Admission is free or by donation. Opening hours change with the seasons, and in summer it is usually open on weekends only.
