introduction
Mount Baw Baw is a pristine wilderness only 2.5 hours from Melbourne. The
mountain boasts some of the most stunning views and scenery Victoria has to
offer and has enormous potential to become a one-of-a-kind alpine retreat.
The natural features of the resort are what make Mount Baw Baw a unique
experience. The resorts proximity to Melbourne, topography and vegetation lends
itself to a plethora of nature based activities.
The following document highlights the key opportunities that Mount Baw Baw
has to offer with regard to development potential.

Currently the majority of visitors to Mount Baw Baw from Melbourne take the
M1 to Drouin then head north through Robin Hood - Neerim South - Noojee - Icy
Creek & Tanjil Bren. The drive from Noojee to Mount Baw Baw is winding and
narrow.

An alternate route, which is considered less precarious is to take the M1 to Moe
then head north through Erica and Rawson. This access is known as the ‘South
Face Road’ and is currently unsealed. It is a preferred route as the road widths
are greater and slopes are less steep.

Sealing the South Face Road to Mount Baw Baw will improve overall mountain
access dramatically, thus making the area a more welcome day visiting
destination. Sealing the south face road also puts Mount Baw Baw along a more
accessible route for tourists on the south eastern tourist trail.

green & white seasons
3 green & white seasons
Mount Baw Baw’s geographic location and altitude allows for an attractive
seasonal variation, with numerous seasonal based opportunities and activities to
attract a wide range of visitors.
The future development of Mount Baw Baw must consider the functions and
facility/amenity usage of both seasons and must capitilise on the attractions,
activities and events associated with the seasonal variation.
Its topography and elevation has resulted in a unique alpine landscape, which
unlike Victoria’s other alpine resorts, the summits of which sit above the treeline,
is characterised by an almost continuous cover of Snow Gum woodland. Mount
Baw Baw boasts a densely vegetated summit that provides pristine beauty year
round.
One particular attraction for outdoor activities is that the road leading up to the
resort boasts the steepest sealed road incline in the Southern Hemisphere.
The Green and White Seasons have their unique attractions and activities that
each provide opportunities for future development of the mountain.
existing green season activities
The White Season generally runs for 13 weeks of the year with the remaining 39
weeks of the year being opened to green season activities.
▪▪ iTours
The current peak season includes the 13 weeks of winter, in particular winter
weekends, which equates to 26 days of the year. School Holidays and midweek skiing are also considered busy periods for the Alpine Resort. For Mount
Baw Baw to become successful the development concept plan must consider
extending the peak season throughout the green season, which means
capitalising on the green season opportunities and developing for both seasons
concurrently.
The development concept plan must consider future climate adaptation and the
changing weather patterns and the effects it will have on the future of the white
season based activities on Mount Baw Baw. With this in consideration, Mount
Baw Baws green season opportunities are abundant and have the potential to
sustain the area over the long term as an attractive destination if developed and
marketed properly.
The following list of green and white season activities can only be expanded on
to help develop Mount Baw Baw into a year round destination.
▪▪ Bushwalking and Photography

Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resort should not be considered as a standalone resort,
rather a part of one of Gippsland’s iconic tourism routes. It is one component of
a series of tourism destinations which when linked through appropriate access
roads will become an outstanding Victorian tourism product

Mount Baw Baw, being around 2 ½ hrs from the Melbourne metropolitan area,
is considered the gateway to the adjacent Baw Baw National Park. Existing
walking/cross country trails connect Mount Baw Baw to nearby destinations
such as Mount St Gwinear, Mount Erica, and the Great Alpine Walking Trail
connecting Wallhalla with Canberra. Nearby towns such as Tanjil Bren, Noojee,
Neerim South, Erica and Jindivick should also be considered for their contribution
and affiliations with the mountain to help develop the region further into a popular
tourist destination.

The region provides an extensive and attractive series of outdoor tourist activities
such as hiking, trail running, mountain biking, white water rafting, canoeing,
fishing, camping, hunting and more. Promoting and enhancing the breadth of
available visitor experiences in the region will provide opportunities for visitors
to extend their stay from one day visits to multi-day stays. The opportunities are
extensive and therefore the development of the resort will need to consider and
provide suitable amenities to cater for an increase of visitor numbers.

5 existing conditions plan
Mount Baw Baw is already a popular scenic alpine adventure mountain in close
proximity to Melbourne. The mountain offers a combination of White and Green
Season Activities which have potential to be further developed.
The village has a friendly atmosphere and can cater for both day-trippers and
long-term visitors. The Alpine Resort currently provides accommodation, ski hire,
food outlets, medical and information centres all within easy walking distance of
car parks.
The Alpine Resort has a unique character that is inviting and friendly for
visitors, which can be attributed to its small community scale, the Snow Gum
vegetation and alpine developments that sit below the tree line and blend with
the landscape. All of which are important characteristics that should be retained
when considering the future development of the mountain.
A number of the existing buildings are slightly rundown and in need of repair or
replacement. The amenities of which do not entice visitors to stay which further
highlights the need to develop and improve the Alpine Resort.
In addition to this, the day to day functions of the resort can be further improved
through a reconfiguration and improvement of existing amenities and facilities.
The Alpine Resort currently functions with the following elements:
resort arrival
1. Mount Baw Baw Tourist Road acts as the main approach/entrance to the Mount Baw Baw Alpine Village.
2. The main car park (day car park 1) is a large expanse of asphalt with little to no way finding information available for visitors.
3. The initial sense of arrival to the Alpine Resort is through a freestanding blockwork wall with welcome signage. Visitors have to pass through here on foot after they have already parked their cars.
activity
9.
The existing building (Mount Baw Baw Ski Hire) is ideally located on axis from the main walkway entrance and has a roof form that compliments the slope of the mountain. The current functions of the building should be reconsidered as the building is in an ideal location that provides opportunities to activate Village Central.
10. The Alpine Hotel is the resorts ‘pub’ and is a popular destination during the winter season. It has ample opportunity to be improved through internal amenities and external appearance. The street address and building footprint can further be improved to sit better within its current location.
11. The existing Snowgum Retail Shop is well located near Village Central and there is an opportunity to increase the building footprint and improve street address.
12. Kelly’s Lodge and Cafe is well located near the Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park and there are opportunities to increase the building footprint to cater for larger groups and improve street address.
13. The existing Medical Centre currently serves as the main medical facility within the Village Central.
14. The existing admin building currently serves as the Resort Information Centre and Administration Office. It is currently located too far from the site entrance and the building footprint has opportunities to be increased.
15.The existing Rock Pool Spa is an attractive activity on the mountain but is poorly located near administration buildings.
16.The existing public toilets and shelter facilities are in poor condition but are well located near the Snow and Alpine area.
17.The existing medical building is located in an ideal location near the ski fields.
4. Extensive views of the south can be obtained from the southern edge of day car park 1. This can further be capitalised on.
18.Skiosk is a small cafe style food and beverage building with decking space that provides fast food options for visitors. It is closed during the Green Season due to low visitor numbers.
5. Toilet facilities are located within close proximity from the car park and are slightly screen by vegetation.
access & connections
6. Magnificent views to the south can be obtained once closer to Village Central.
19.The existing Snow Gum lined corridor is an attractive walkway entrance to the resort which promotes the character of the resort and should be retained.
existing commercial interest & administration
7. Existing Village Central is an expanse of gravel ideally located and situated between built forms. There is scope to increase the extent of Village Central and improve its visual amenity.
8.
Village Central Restaurant Bar and Function Centre has prime position which capitalises on views to the south. The building has recently been renovated and there is scope to further extend this building to capitalise on views. The restaurant caters high quality food for visitors.
20.The existing roundabout is the final turnaround and parking area for administration vehicles. The area is the final point where visitors leave the developed area to access the ski fields. The area has opportunities to be further redesigned and established into a more attractive plaza space.
21.The access way to the ski fields allows magnificent views to the ski fields across the adjacent Sub Alpine Wet Heathland.
22.The Major Activity Launching Point is where visitors take off on their daily
adventures on Mount Baw Baw. This is also the point where most people will
meet at the end of the day
23.The area at the base of the Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park provides access
to the Ski Field via the Maltese Cross Poma.
24.The activity zone is the main Ski field and of high importance to the Alpine
Resort for both Green and White Season activities.
25.Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park caters for a large amount of day visitors and is important to the functions of the Alpine Resort
26. The Frantic Frog Toboggan Park is the secondary toboggan park that operates
during peak times. A net at the base catches users at the end of their run.
27. The activity zone located on the southern side of the mountain is used for
downhill mountain bike riding during the green season.
existing accommodation
28.Mt Baw Baw Ski Club is currently in poor condition and located within close
proximity to the ecological creek network and within the Sub Alpine Wet
Heathland.
29. The existing lodges on the mountain range in quality. Some are run down
and some have been recently renovated. The development concept plan
will consider the location and quality when determining the re-use of these
building parcels.
ecological sensitivity
30.The protected ecological zones consists of Sub Alpine Wet Heathland and are
an important asset to the ecological value of the Alpine Resort.
existing infrastructure
31.The generator power currently provides all the power to the Alpine Resort. The
daily power requirements are currently being met, however the Alpine Resort
does experience curtailments on occasion. Future expansion and development
of the resort will be enhanced by connection to the grid power.
32.The water tanks are currently located in an ideal location. They provide the
Alpine Resort with drinking water and water for snow making.
33.The additional car parks are used during the peak season when car onmountain car parking is in high demand.

6 development concept plan
The development concept plan should be used as a guide for the future
expansion and development of Mount Baw Baw to ensure the Alpine Resort is
developed in a way that maximises opportunities, yet retains its existing natural
character. Elements of the Mount Baw Baw development concept plan include:
resort arrival
1. Mount Baw Baw Tourist Road acts as the main approach/entrance to the Mount Baw Baw Alpine Village.
2. A feature gateway entrance located in the position shown will be the identifying point of arrival and should be welcoming and direct visitors into the main car park.
3.
The main car park will accommodate day visitors. Initial views upon entry from car park will include administration buildings, activity from the chairlift access and a new accommodation development (27). Overflow parking will be required to park in other car spaces provided. Refer to access and parking diagrams page.18 for more information.
4.
The development parcels identified and highlighted as administration buildings upon arrival will provide visitors with way finding services, ticketing services, toilets, accommodation services, tourist information, general information, ski/bike & equipment hire and a food drop off/temporary storage point.
5. Chair lift access to the top of Maltese Cross will give visitors direct access to the mountain for activities within minutes from parking their cars.
commercial interest & village central
6. Village Central will act as the central hub to Mount Baw Baw Village. Developments fronting Village Central will provide a range of food and beverage services.
7. Village Central Restaurant Bar and Function Centre has prime position which capitalises on views to the south all the way to Westernport Bay. There is scope to extend this development to include more function room and decking space.
8. Opportunity to develop this building into a restaurant and/or function space. This building should provide active frontages on the ground floor and could operate with a gallery space to the upper level.
9.
The Alpine Hotel has prime location within Village Central and can be extended to cater for larger groups. The development’s northern interface should consider the northern views over the Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park and ski area.
10.Snowgum Retail Shop can be expanded to cater for larger groups. Opportunities to introduce more food and beverage services as well as the general store/grocery services.
11. The Alpine Garden will provide an opportunity for snow play amongst the unique to Baw Baw snow gum environment. Paths through the space can provide direct access to the Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park and the Alpine Hotel.
12. Kelly’s Lodge and Cafe has opportunity to be expanded to cater for larger groups and take better advantage of the surrounding landscape. The future development should consider the western views over the Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park and capitalise on the northern views to the snow and alpine area.
13.Frosti Frog Hollow Toboggan Park caters for a large amount of day visitors and is important to the functions of the Alpine Resort.
access & connections
14.A Snow Gum lined corridor will direct visitors from the arrival point to the hub of Mount Baw Baw - Village Central.
15.A Snow Gum lined corridor will direct visitors from Village Central to the final admin/launching point.
16.The Runway provides access from the development zone to the activity zone. This area provides significant views over the protected ecological zone and the ski area.
17.The Launching Point will function as the final point from which people leave
the developed area into the activity zone. Administration buildings in this area
will provide ticketing services, ski school services, ski/bike & equipment hire
and toilets.
18.The administration buildings identified will serve as medical and ski school
services due to their close proximity to the Ski Field.
activity
19.The Major Activity Launching Point is where visitors take off on their daily
adventures on Mount Baw Baw. This is also the point where most people will
meet at the end of the day
20.The activity zone is the main Ski field and of high importance to the Alpine
Resort for both Green and White Season activities.
21. The activity launching point located to the base of the Maltese Cross Poma
provides immediate access to the Ski field from Village Central and nearby
accommodation.
22.The activity launching point located to the main entrance of Village Central
will cater for downhill mountain bike activities.
23. The activity zone located on the southern side of the mountain will serve as a
downhill mountain bike track during the green season.
24.Skiosk caters for quick food fixes and is in a prime location within the Major
Activity Launching Point.
25.A Community Pavilion will provide visitors with shelter from the weather and
an escape from the cold during winter months, whilst providing a meeting
place/ tranquil respite during the green season and a potential all-year-round
exhibition area with toilet facilities. The pavilion should be located to capitalise
on the views over the adjacent Sub Alpine Wet Heathland.
development & accommodation
26.A new accommodation development located on the southern slope of Mount
Baw Baw can be integrated into the mountain slope. It should be visually
sensitive to the surrounding environment and should not interfere with views
from above.
27. A new accommodation development could be located to the southern edge of
the carpark to capitalise on the southern views.
28.A new accommodation development could be located as shown. The
development type could consist of a series of pavilion style lodges integrated
within the existing vegetation. Existing building parcels should be utilised
where possible.
29.A new star accommodation development could be integrated within the
existing vegetation where possible.
30.The existing lodges with a decent physical condition and living standards
should remain. This includes lodge style accommodation to cater for existing
users and a wider demographic.
ecological sensitivity
31.The protected ecological zones consist of Sub Alpine Wet Heathland and
should not be subject to development.
infrastructure
32.The generator power should remain in its current location and serve as the
main current power source, and as backup power once mains power is
connected to the mountain. The structures should be concealed from the
main arrival view and other views if possible.
33.The water tanks are currently located in an ideal location. Additional water
tanks should be either incorporated within the space or placed elsewhere to
cater for growing snow making needs.
34.The additional car parks will cater for surplus parking. Car parks could be
considered as future development parcels once all identified opportunities on
the mountain have been exhausted and the need demands it. Refer to access
and parking diagrams page.18 for more information on parking.

Identifying Mount Baw Baw as a destination is important to the overall image and
experience of the mountain. Currently there is a lack of signage acknowledging
the mountain, and providing direction. The following diagram highlights key points
of interest to the mountains access.
1. The junction point is the location where the two main access routes meet.
This location has been identified for welcome signage and additional car
parking during peak season.
2. The main arrival gateway as shown in the concept plan should welcome
visitors to the Mount Baw Baw Village.
3. The Day Car Park no.1 will serve as a drop off/pick up point for both vehicles
and shuttle services. This parking will be filled first as it is in a prime location
closest to the Village.
4. The Day Car Park no.2 will be filled with cars once Day Car Park no.1 is full.
5. The Day Car Park no.3 will be filled with cars once Day Car Park no.2 is full.
6. The Day Car Park no.4 will be filled with cars once Day Car Park no.3 is full.
7. The Day Car Park no.5 will be filled with cars once Day Car Park no.4 is full.
A local shuttle service running between Day Car Parks nos. 2-3-4 & 5 will
transport visitors to the main car park (Day Car Park 1) during the peak times
(morning and evenings)
8. The bus parking zone will be only available to shuttle and coach services.
9. The Day Car Park no.6 will be filled with cars once Day Car Park no.5 is full. A
shuttle service will transport visitors and their equipment from this point to
the Village.
10.The Day Car Park no.7 will be filled with cars once Day Car Park no.6 is full. A
shuttle service will transport visitors and their equipment from this point to
the Village.
11.The bend along Mount Baw Baw Tourist Road is a distinguishable node along
the access route and could incorporate signage to notify visitors of their
current location in relation to the distance and elevation to the Alpine Village.
This point will also serve as a shuttle pick up point for downhill mountain bike
riders during the Green Season. This pick up point is line with the proposed
Mount Baw Baw Mountain Biking Concept Plan vision and recommendations.
12.The lower car park at the junction point is a suitable location to serve as
a shuttle pick up point for downhill mountain bike riders during the Green
Season. This pick up point is line with the proposed Mount Baw Baw
Mountain Biking Concept Plan vision and recommendations.
13.The municipal entrance point is a suitable location to serve as a shuttle pick
up point for downhill mountain bike riders during the Green Season. This pick
up point is line with the proposed Mount Baw Baw Mountain Biking Concept
Plan vision and recommendations.

10 development opportunities
There is minimal existing good quality accommodation at Mount Baw Baw. There
is an opportunity to both improve accommodation type on the mountain and the
quantity available.
The following diagram highlights the land parcels identified as part of the ongoing
development of Mount Baw Baw to provide the highest levels of opportunity for
the resort to run in a functional and productive manner.
legend
The development concept plan has identified the optimal locations for new
accommodation developments as part of the Alpine Village Resort. The process
in which the parcels were identified has taken into consideration the Bushfire
Management Overlay (BMO) and Significant Landscape Overlay (SLO) affecting
the site as well as general site features, functions and views.
The land parcels identified have been categorised into the following
accommodation styles dependant on location, amenity & activity accessibility:
activity fields
▪▪ Luxury;
standard
▪▪ Standard;
budget
The major guiding principle for all new developments is to ensure the existing
character of Mount Baw Baw and its natural setting is retained, protected and
promoted. For this reason the choice locations for development include:
▪▪ Budget; and
opportunity
▪▪ Existing building footprints; and
luxury
▪▪ Under utilised open space.
The choice locations closest to Village Central and the activity fields have been
identified as areas to receive high-end luxury accommodation. This includes land
parcels identified as A, B, G & I.
To ensure the existing character is retained all new developments should be
developed below the tree line.
The concept could involve pavilion style lodges around a central area similar
to the style adopted successfully in other resorts. This affords more private
accommodation - as compared to the older ski-club style - which is more in
keeping with modern demands.
Importantly, this style of development could be built cost-effectively and lessobtrusively into the Snow Gum environment:
▪▪ by developing in stages;
▪▪ utilising prefabrication and drop-in techniques; and
▪▪ conserving capital, by progressively deploying outlays.
With these considerations, the following recommendations should read in
conjunction with the development opportunities diagram, which highlights the
potential new development parcels.
▪▪ Opportunity.
standard
▪▪ Areas highlighted in orange have been identified to receive a standard level
accommodation style. The proposed development could be mid-range priced
accommodation as the land parcels are still within close proximity to Village
Central and the activity fields. This includes land parcels identified as C, D, E &
F.
budget
▪▪ The areas highlighted to receive budget accommodation include land
parcels located further from activity, amenity and services. The development
could provide budget accommodation to ensure a range of demographics
are catered for on the mountain. The areas also include land parcels with
existing lodge accommodation which could be retained as part of the existing
character of the resort. This includes land parcels identified as L & M.
opportunity
▪▪ The existing car parks have been identified as future opportunities for
development as they are physically suited due to their availability of space.
They are located further from activity, amenity and services, however a
range of accommodation styles could be developed on these land parcels.
Opportunity land parcels identified as H includes all existing car parks on the
mountain.
A more detailed description of the existing conditions and potential development
types for the identified land parcels can be found on the following pages.
The relative emphasis will depend on the desired Resort branding and promotion.

development parcel A
development parcel B
development parcel C
This location currently consists of a range of existing developments including:
This development parcel is located in a prime position as it is in close proximity
to Village Central and has potential to capitalise on the mesmerising views to the
south. The development should be visually sensitive, by blending in within the
landscape as much as possible and could consider building techniques such as
green roofs and planting to screen built forms.
This development parcel is located within close proximity to Village Central and
is located on the edge of the Day Car Park no.1. The proposed development
for this land parcel has potential to capitalise on the views to the south. The
development should not be too intrusive as its presence will immediately be
noticed upon arrival to Mount Baw Baw Village and the proposed gateway
entrance.
2 - Du Nord Ski Club;
3 - Bunerong Ski Club;
8 - Lonsdale Ski Club; and
9 - Skali Ski Club.
All of the above locations/buildings provide relatively low quality accommodation
conditions and are in prime location. The proposed developments within this
zone could see the removal of the above lodges and take advantage of the
space of their footprints. New buildings can be fitted amongst the trees where
possible. Vegetation removal should be kept to a minimum but if necessary could
be considered providing it does not detract from the natural environment. All
developments within this zone should be kept below the existing tree line.
Recommendations - It is recommended the accommodation type be a
pavilion with ensuite style arrangement. The pavilions could alter in size to
cater for a variety of group sizes. This includes 1-3 storey developments. The
accommodation facility could include reception service, a communal gathering
spot and spa facilities. Basic cooking facilities can be provided within the
pavilions, however it could be expected that the visitors will eat at the available
restaurant facilities on the mountain.
Constraints - Removal of vegetation will require permits and offset planting.
Recommendations – A terraced development integrated within the southern
mountain slope. One which capitalises on views to the south and does not
restrict views from above, in particular Village Central Restaurant and the initial
views to the south when entering Village Central upon arrival.
Recommendations – A consolidated single block accommodation type. One
which capitalises on views to the south.
development parcel D
development parcel E
development parcel F
This parcel currently consists of Snow Gum vegetation and Wonthaggi Ski Club
(17). Wonthaggi Ski Club is in poor condition and could be considered for removal
and a new development could take advantage of the available footprint. On
top of this, the location can be further developed providing the existing natural
character is retained. Additional developments could be incorporated to sit within
the Snow Gum vegetation. Vegetation removal should be kept to a minimum but
if necessary could be considered providing it does not detract from the natural
environment.
This parcel currently consists of Snow Gum vegetation and two lodge style
accommodation types - Rob Gray Ski Club (15) and W.F. Waters Ski Club. Both
lodges are in prime location along the entrance path to Village Central and could
be considered for removal and a new development should take advantage of
the available footprint. The proposed new developments could be incorporated
to sit within the Snow Gum vegetation. Vegetation removal should be kept to a
minimum but if necessary could be considered providing it does not detract from
the natural environment.
This parcel currently consists of Snow Gum vegetation and no existing
developments. The location can be further developed providing the existing
natural character is retained. Additional developments could be incorporated

minimum but if necessary could be considered providing it does not detract from
the natural environment.
Recommendations - A pavilion style accommodation type. One which sits within
the natural Snow Gum vegetation and blends in within the landscape. Building
heights should not exceed existing tree heights.

This parcel currently consists of Snow Gum vegetation and the Benbullen Ski
Club (20). Benbullen Ski Club is in poor condition and could be considered for
removal and a new development could take advantage of the available footprint.
In addition to this, the location can be further developed providing the existing
natural character is retained. Additional developments could be incorporated
to sit within the Snow Gum vegetation. Vegetation removal should be kept to a
minimum but if necessary could be considered providing it does not detract from

The parcel identified currently consists of Coora Valley Lodge. A development
that is in good condition and should be retained. This parcel should only be
considered for development if Coora Valley Lodge becomes rundown over time
and the new development should be incorporated to be part of the adjacent
pavilion style accommodation as identified in development parcel A.
This parcel of land currently consists of 2 lodges:
Recommendations - This parcel is within close proximity to the Maltese Cross
Poma and could incorporate a pavilion style accommodation type. One which
sits within the natural Snow Gum vegetation and blends in within the landscape.
Building heights should not exceed existing tree heights.
Constraints - Removal of vegetation will require permits and offset planting.
development parcel J
This parcel currently consists of Snow Gum vegetation and no existing
developments. The location can be further developed providing the existing
natural character is retained. Additional developments could be incorporated
to sit within the Snow Gum vegetation. Vegetation removal should be kept to
a minimum but if necessary could be considered providing it does not detract
from the natural environment. The parcel is located adjacent to two popular and
profitable existing lodges:
development parcel H
39 - Wombat Cabin; and
The existing car parks are physically suited for development as they already
provide clear unrestricted flat land and no vegetation removal will be required.
These development parcels should be considered once all development parcels
have been included and the need for more accommodation demands it.
On-mountain parking is in high demand and these parcels should only be
considered once off-mountain parking and shuttle services are running
conveniently.
40 - Woollybutt Cabin.
Recommendations - A consolidated accommodation type with parking availability
for visitors. Potentially include car parking underground or under-structure to
maximise use of space.
These lodges have been prefabricated and positioned on site. They provide a self
contained accommodation style with one-two bedroom private units previously
not available on the mountain.
Recommendations - A pavilion style accommodation type similar to the existing
Wombat and Woollybutt cabins. One which sits within the natural Snow Gum
vegetation and blends in within the landscape. Building heights should not
exceed existing tree heights.
Constraints - Removal of vegetation will require permits and offset planting.
Existing land is steep and needs to be considered as part of the design of the
lodges.
13 - Currawong Lodge; and
14 - Anare Ski Club.
Both are typical Alpine Resort accommodation types, featuring A-frame roofs.
They are however in poor condition and it is recommended they be removed. It
is recommended the parcel be kept free from developments as a means to open
up access to the Frosti Frog Hollow Reserve and create a place close to Village
Central for activities within a natural Snow Gum vegetation. Alternatively the A
frame shelters can be re configured into public shelters for small groups to gather
during lunch hours.

19 - Tanjil Creek Lodge.
These developments are in good condition and could be retained. This parcel
should only be considered for development in the far future if the above lodge
becomes rundown over time. New development could take advantage of
the available footprints of existing buildings and the surrounding land can be
further developed providing the existing natural character is retained. The new
developments should be incorporated to sit within the Snow Gum vegetation.

To ensure Mount Baw Baw is developed to its full potential it is recommended
some key projects be considered for implementation first. All other ideas
previously identified in this report could be implemented on an as needed basis
to be determined by the desired Resort branding and promotion of the Alpine
Resort.
The sequential process in which Mount Baw Baw is initially developed is subject
to a number of key considerations:
▪▪ Functionality - to improve the the day to day functions of the Alpine Resort for
recreation users in both the white and green seasons;
▪▪ Expansion of accommodation offer - to introduce a new luxury style
accommodation to the Alpine Resort to attract a new market group; and
▪▪ Improve events/ conference amenities - to improve the existing and introduce
new events and conference facilities to cater for larger groups.
With these in considerations the following key projects have been suggested to
progress development on Mount Baw Baw:
Key Projects:
Relocate administration facilities/ operations to new buildings at the resort
entrance to provide visitors direction and information.
Introduce a luxury accommodation style to development parcel A to cater for a
new market for the Alpine Resort which could potentially adopt the staged cost
effective pavillion style accomodation described earlier.
Upgrade and improve the functionality and amenity facilities of the existing Mt
Baw Baw Ski Hire Building to improve the functionality of Village Central and
provide Event Space, Gallery and Function Room availability to the mountain.
Relocate Ski Hire to the administration buildings near day car park no.1 and the
Launching Point.
Introduce the Mount Baw Baw Mountain Biking Concept Plan to increase the
attractiveness of green season activities and visitor numbers.
Introduce a Maltese Cross Chairlift to allow mountain access for both the green
and white season activities from the day car park no.1.
Side Project:
Seal the South Face Road and connect the Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resort to grid
power to both improve mountain accessibility and the day to day economics of
the Resort.
Future expansion and development of the resort will be enhanced by grid
power. Sealing the south road access provides the opportunity to incorporate
underground cabling along that route while roadwork is being undertaken.
