Great to see Mount Buffalo national park is open again! We’re the closest accommodation to the park entry and have availability this weekend if you’re ready to explore the park whether for walks, views or cycling 🚴 ⛰️🌄🧗🥾

Good news from our friends at Parks Victoria... Mount Buffalo National Park has partially reopened to visitors. 💙

Most of the key visitor sites along the main road are reopening. However a few of the more remote walking tracks and the two remote campsites remain closed.

Victoria Police will continue to be present on the mountain with regular patrols. Parks Vic are comfortable that the work they have done means this loved National Park is now safe to open.

For further detail about open and closed areas, please refer to: https://www.parks.vic.gov.au/news/2025/10/06/22/16/mt-buffalo-national-park-reopens

Winter is putting on a show in the high country - foggy mornings, frosty riverbanks and the sound of water flowing through the rivers and creeks.

It’s the perfect time to slow down, soak in the atmosphere and watch the seasons begin to shift and Nine Steps is ready for your next escape ❄️🌻🌱🍷

⭐️Great reviews and lots of wombat 💩 😆

We love reading the reviews from guests young and old! Here’s a few on their stay at our cozy retreat at the foot of Mount Buffalo:

💬 “Hands down the best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed at”

🔥 “Our favourite part was the wood fire heater. For city people like us, it’s the dream to stay warm with a proper log fire”

🏡 “Our second stay at this heavenly retreat. Wonderfully designed house in beautiful surrounds. Serene and comfortable. Can’t recommend highly enough.”

🏔️ “It was such a perfect little spot, nestled into the bush with lots of space to roam, but close enough to Bright and right at the doorstop of Mount Buffalo National Park!”

💩 Kid approved highlight? Spotting wombat holes and wombat poo on nature walks. A fun and memorable adventure for explorers of all ages 🐾

Thank you to all our guests for sharing your experiences and making Nine Steps part of your special memories.

Book your stay and experience the magic for yourself!
