We have a minimum of 3 bookings to operate but will work with you to find a tour with other riders

If your preferred date does not meet the required minimum to operate we will work with you to move your booking to another day

If there are safety concerns with weather we will give you a credit to book again or move you to another day (these credits are transferable)

If we are having any issues mechanically that stops your touring from happening, we will issue a full refund

Tours commence from the containers in between Eagle and Scotts Chair Lifts.

If we are unable to operate due to weather we will either roll your booking over to the next suitable day or issue you a credit that can be used the same season or the next if you’re not going to make it back. We’re happy for these credits to be passed on to others. Just get in touch and let us know whose details to change it too. Email us at bookings@fallscreekbackcountry.com.au

All winter months offer different opportunities in the backcountry. July school holidays is a great time to beat the traffic inbounds. August offers the most stable snow, and September has the most blue bird days. There’s never a bad time to book a tour with us.

While you’re not required to hike or carry heavy equipment, you need to be fit enough for 10-12 laps within a 2-3 hour window. If you need a break you can always hang out for a run or 2 and catch your breath.
