    Burger Haus

    Grab a burger from Burger Haus. It is close to the lift and George's Ski Hire, so you can move quickly. The area is small and gets busy, so arriving early helps avoid a queue.

  2. 19:03

    Buller Air Zone

    Head to the Buller Air Zone on Level 2 of the Alpine Central building. Use the time to stretch your legs and get a feel for the mountain before the light changes. This indoor spot offers trampolines and climbing walls if you need a break from the cold.

  3. 19:18

    Horse Hill

    Walk 14 minutes northeast to Horse Hill. This summit offers a clear view of the western horizon. Arrive with enough time to find a good spot and watch the sky shift as the sun begins to set toward the WSW.

  4. 20:28

    The Whitt

    After the light fades, walk 4 minutes to The Whitt for dinner. The restaurant serves modern Australian-style cooking with a European flair and has a games room, making it a good option for families. Book early as it gets very busy.

Local tip

Check the route if you need to move between locations after dark. The Whitt requires booking due to high demand.
