Julio,
Mt Donna Buang as long as it has snow on it. Only suitable for a look and play. It does have one small toboggan run but not always in use due to lack of snow.
Cheers,
Jim.

I have taken my boys to lake mountain twice now, the first time they were about 18months, 3 & 5 they had a ball. we went mid august so the snow was starting to dissapear a bit but there was still one toboggin run open and they loved it. Since the fires they have had to replace their snow making equipment but it is better now. We are planning to go back next winter - although we have stayed at marysville in the past and
well....that may be hard - not sure how much accomodation is available now - will be hard I think to see it again post black saturday as it was such a beautiful town.
oops sorry got a bit off topic there- Lake Mountain is very family friendly for snow play. Would advice packing a picnic lunch - they have some food etc available and a couple of bbqs but you may have a long wait for one if it is busy.
