Welcome to the Birkebeiner Nordic Ski Club! We are a progressive cross country skiing club located in Mount Beauty and Falls Creek - about 350km from Melbourne. We have a wonderful community of around 250 skiers who are actively involved in our social and xc skiing activities.
Members have access to our club house near Windy Corner to explore cross country skiing and the Bogong High Plains, as well as many other snow related sports at Falls Creek. Our ski club helps run some of the key cross country events at Falls Creek - including Ski de Femme and the Kanagaroo Hoppet.
