Belgravia Leisure to manage the troubled Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resort, 2½ hours drive from Melbourne.
After a Victorian state government contribution $4,539,215 last year, the resort recorded a $408,783 loss and management has been transferred from the government to Belgravia Leisure that also manages Lake Mountain.
Mount Baw Baw has seven surface lifts (three T-bars, two platters and one poma, plus a “magic carpet”).
Belgravia operations manager Anthony McIntosh said reducing the resort’s reliance on government funding would be a key goal.
Mr McIntosh said “We will be making improvements to visitor services, to accommodation and to snow management which will enhance and expand the visitor experience.”
