Mount Buffalo Road - requirement to carry vehicle snow chains

The Mt Buffalo Road is a declared hazardous road from 1st June through to 7th October. Vehicle snow chains may be required to be carried throughout this period. An assessment is made prior to each day as to whether snow chains are required. This decision is based on forecasted snow below 1600 metres or the current road conditions are considered hazardous from snow and/or ice.

A Mount Buffalo Snow Report is posted daily on the Mt Buffalo National Park web page. This report provides information on current snow conditions and whether chains are required to be carried and also if they are currently being fitted.
