The Mount Buller Alpine Resort is an unincorporated area under the direct administration of the government of Victoria, and is surrounded by the Shire of Mansfield.

The ski area around the town has a network of 22 lifts, capable of moving more than 40,000 people per hour - the highest capacity in Victoria.

This addition saw the decommissioning of one of the oldest chairs of the mountain — the Abom (previously known as Helicopter), along with Blue Bullet 2.

In December 2018 the construction of a new 6 seat chairlift commenced to replace the ageing Blue Bullet Quad, now called Bourke Street Express.

However, a change in supplier from the 2019 snow season occurred with TravelSafe Bus Hire appointed as the official transit provider for Mount Buller with Bendigo Coachlines the primary operator.

Now TravelSafe and Mansfield Mount Buller Bus Lines co-exist on the mountain with both handling transportation.

Snowmaking began on Mount Buller in the 1970s with a pilot system on Enzian Ski Run, which was later moved to Bourke Street.

The decreasing dependability of snowfalls due to climate change has made the investment in snowmaking a priority.

Water and compressed air delivery hydrants are located down the edge of the runs where the snow guns are coupled using flexible snowmaking hoses.

Separate management for alpine resorts in Victoria has been provided for since the Forests Act 1958, and regulations for the administration of Mount Buller were first made in 1960.
