Mount Hotham Fire Station (Mount Hotham-Dinner Plain Fire Brigade)

Nestled in Victoria's Alpine National Park, the Mount Hotham-Dinner Plain Fire Brigade serves as a vital emergency response unit for the region. Operating year-round, the brigade faces unique challenges, particularly during the winter months when the area attracts a surge of visitors for the ski season. This influx leads to an increase in incidents such as chimney fires and motor vehicle accidents. The brigade's commitment to community safety is evident through proactive engagement, including hosting fire safety sessions with key stakeholders at the start of the ski season. Additionally, the brigade has been equipped with state-of-the-art Alpine Tracked Pumpers, specifically designed to navigate the snow and icy conditions of the alpine environment, ensuring effective firefighting capabilities during the winter months.
