Year Round Fun

Harrietville is beautiful gem hidden at the end of the Alpine Valleys. This peaceful, charming town offers fresh alpine air, spectacular views and absolute relaxation but there is also plenty of action & excitement to keep the whole family entertained! Harrietville offers something for everyone whether you yearn for adventure or an escape from the hustle & bustle of city life. Many events are also hosted in town year round.

Perhaps you could stroll down to the old swimming hole for a dip and a BBQ of fresh fish you've caught. 'Tronoh Lake', just a short stroll from the property has a jetty for fishing & dipping your toes in as well as a pontoon for the adventurous swimmer or you could just find a private spot along the crisp, clear Ovens river.
Make your way back past the ice creamery for a home made ice cream and a play at the park. While your at it check out the historical museum before stopping off at one of the cafes for a fantastic coffee. As the sun sets over the mountains, relax on the balcony of one of two hotels and sip a glass of local wine.

Looking for something a little more adventurous, take the world famous walk to Mt Feathertop. Or maybe one of the more gentle paths?
Cycle the Great Alpine Road or head up to Hotham for some skiing or mountain biking. Fishing, hiking, tubing, 4WDing, if you're only staying for the weekend, you'll be back!
And of course, there is plenty to explore out of Harrietville with Bright just 25kms away. Acclaimed wineries and restaurants are within your reach. Then you can visit Milawa, Beechworth, even take the easy drive to Falls Creek.

We can also assist with any little extras you would like. Maybe a local continental breakfast or platter hamper, a surprise for that special someone, in-house massage, activity bookings.....just ask!

  • "The property was great. Fully equipped, everything one may need tor a few days stay. We took 4 overseas visitors there very late March. They wanted to savour Victorian Country. The Kookaburras, the local pub, the walking tracks and mountains added up to agreat few days. Very much recommended."
