Just 500 metres from the carpark on the Bogong Highplinas road there are spectacular views of the High Plains and on a clear day you can see as far as Benambra on the other side of the Great Dividing Range. Cope Hut was built by the Ski Club of Victoria in 1929 after the state experienced a surge in skiing in the 1920s. The hut was called “The Menzies of the High Plains” by early skiers and walkers because of its size and comfort. The High Country huts are historical monuments nestled in the spectacular Alpine National Park. Some huts date back to the 1860s and remain as a testament to the pioneers who lived, explored and worked on this land. While a few huts were used as homes for workers, others were built to shelter skiers and hikers. (Nelse, Victoria, Australia)
