Bogong, Victoria

Bogong Village is an untouched jewel nestling in the foothills of Victoria’s highest mountain, Mt Bogong. It is located at 1000m asl, between Mt Beauty and Falls Creek in the High Country.

Situated on the picturesque Lake Guy, the village was established in 1940 with magnificent gardens surrounded on all sides by Australian forest rich in native birdlife.

The European trees of the village gardens are stunning in spring, summer and most particularly in autumn when set against the Australian bush backdrop. In winter the village is a welcome base for those seeking the downhill excitement of snow capped mountains and the breathtaking beauty of cross-country trekking at the nearby Falls Creek resort.

It's a perfect setting for a host of scenic and recreational pursuits.

Indigenous culture

For countless generations, Aboriginal people congregated in Victoria's high country every summer to feast on the Bogong moth, which swarmed up to cooler climes from the hot plains in their millions. A highlight of the area is the Bataluk cultural trail, where you can discover traditional lifestyles and archaeological and sacred sites.
