What activities besides skiing and snowboarding are available to do at the Victorian ski resorts?

Question

My husband wants to take the kids skiing but I am not much of a skier. Is there much to do that doesn't involve skiing/snowboarding? I'm looking for stuff to do with my kids but also on my own when they're off in classes.

If snow isn't really your thing and you are staying up there for a few days, try to book a place that has a day spa. There are lots of lodges to stay at Hotham and some of them have day spas, you can get messages and facials too. There are also a number of bars at Hotham you could visit. Check out the Hotham homepage; www.mthotham.com.au it has all the info you will need including lodge info.

Hope this helps

Well work at a ski resort and usually all of them have a lobby. There some places have a wifi signal broadcasted. You can get on the internet thatway. there is also tubbing but i dont think its much fun going by yourself. but you should try snowboarding. once you get the hang of it, youll have a blast

taboganing is always fun for the yougens or even just go have a picnic in the snow with soup, hot chocolates and do activities such as make a snow man and make snow angles.

The resort probably has a tubing park. Kids will love it! You could also build a snowman together or have a snowball fight. While the kids are at lessons you could go shopping or to a spa. Ask your concierge for some ideas too!
