Mount Hotham

Mount Hotham alpine ski resort is 210 km north-east of Melbourne. It lies on a ridge between the Dargo High Plains (part of the upper reaches of some Gippsland watersheds) and the Bogong High Plains (part of the north-east watersheds which flow to the Murray River). The road journey to Mount Hotham is usually done by the Hume and Ovens Highways, via Wangaratta, and then by the Alpine Highway from Bright.

Mount Hotham (1861m) was named by the Government botanist, Ferdinand von Mueller, after the Governor of Victoria, Sir Charles Hotham, in 1854.
