Alfies Fast Food F.V is now closed for 2026 snow season.
A very mild snow season as described a Super El Niño event.
4 weekends with marginal snow cover and 2 weeks of good cover over the Baw Baw Plateau in July that included snow down low at the 🅿️ Car Park.

Thank you to everyone who visited the Park when the snow was on and supported the food van.

Thank you also to Parks Victoria and St Gwinear Ski Patrol who also put in their efforts each season to help make Mt St Gwinear a great & safe place for visitors in winter.

Hopefully next year we will receive more snow. ❄️❄️❄️
Thanks again, Anthony

This 3km hike winds through an enchanting mountain ash forest dotted with silver wattle, lush ferns, and even snow in the winter season.

Walk amongst the trees and monumental granite tors, formed over many years, that give this special place its name.
