A great way to keep costs down ×
Skiing in Australia is expensive. Cross country skiing is no exception, although of course, it is not as expensive as alpine skiing. Our club has decades of experience of finding and booking relatively inexpensive skiing accommodation.
Our ride sharing system helps to keep transport costs in check and our collective knowledge about ski gear can help you keep the cost of gear in check. We also have an online gear exchange where you can buy and sell gear within the club.
Welcome to Melbourne Nordic
Welcome to the Melbourne Nordic Ski Club (MNSC) web site. We are based in Melbourne, the capital city of the state of Victoria in Australia. Our club is built around the activities of its members, who range from novice skiers to elite racers. Members participate in a broad range of ski activities including trail-skiing, snow-camping and back country skiing, telemarking, racing and ski orienteering. Some members are involved in ski patrols, the nordic rescue service and conserving our alpine parks and environments. In the summer months many of our members participate in other outdoor activities like mountain biking, bushwalking, canoeing and sailing.
If you're not yet a member, have a look at our website to find out more about our Club - who we are, why we're here and why you should join us. Whether you are an experienced skier looking for friends to ski and socialise with, a novice interested in learning to ski or somewhere in between, skiing with a club is fun, it offers a chance to learn new skills, meet new skiing friends and try new types of skiing (and it can save you a lot of money!).
