During the snow season it is a legal Conveyor Chain necessity that all vehicles entering the vacation resort bring snow chains. This consists of AWD and 4WD vehicles and applies from the growing season opening on June 9 through to the last day of the growing season on October 7.
The sheltered approach to Falls Creek means the road is not usually suffering from snow and ice conditions. In most cases chains are just fit during or directly after heavy snowfall, and usually limited to the final 5 – 10km. Keep an eye on ice patches however as these can develop with clear conditions, especially in early morning.
Snow chains can be hired from numerous outlets in Myrtleford and Mt Beauty on your way to Falls Creek. For date details on chain fitting status make sure you examine the snow report web page on your way.
