If you are going to Mt Baw Baw,

It is required by law to carry chains when travelling to Mount Baw Baw.

Chains must be carried during the snow season regardless of snow conditions.

Diamond pattern chains are preferable due to the steep gradient of the access road.

Chain Hire is not available at the Resort - so be sure to plan ahead.

Upon entry to the Resort, you will be directed by Mountain Staff where and when to fit your chains. Depending on the snowfall this generally takes place once you have passed the Gate Entry. It is your responsibility to know how to fit wheel chains and ensure they are the correct size. If in doubt please ask your chain retailer for instructions.
