The Hotham Pass
Mount Hotham is the highest resort village in Australia. The road up to the summit, the Great Alpine Road, is akin to some of the lower mountain passes of the European Alps - the gradients are quite steep and there are numerous hairpin bends. From the town of Bright in the valley below Hotham, one can see the road clinging to the mountainside. The whole road was finally sealed a few years ago, but there are still numerous winter driving problems, notably the black ice which the route (along with most other Australian mountain passes) is prone to. Great care should be taken driving this route in winter; chains are mandatory and there are fitting stations at certain locations. View from Myrtleford to Mount Buffalo National Park The Great Alpine Road (B500) is a country road from Wangaratta to Bairnsdale passing through the Victorian Alps. ...
