LOTUS WEEK SUMMARY

Day 1 - Monday October 26th- Winton Track Day

Kick off Lotus Week 2026 with a full day at Winton Raceway, where you can explore the limits of your Lotus in a safe, controlled track environment. With open sessions and expert guidance, you’ll have every opportunity to sharpen your skills, perfect your lines, and feel the car at its absolute best.

Once the chequered flag falls, we’ll hit the road for a spirited tourist drive to Mt Buller, winding our way through some of Victoria’s finest driving roads. Our destination: the Arlberg Hotel, where a warm welcome dinner and breathtaking alpine views set the stage for the days ahead.

Day 2 - Tuesday October 27th - Mt Buller - Closed Road Drive

Wake up above the clouds and prepare for something truly special — exclusive closed-road runs up and down the Mt Buller alpine road.

The road is closed and all ours, with multiple groups running behind our experienced tour leaders, giving you the chance to savour every sweeping bend as we descend and climb the road between the summit and the ticket booth.

Passengers are welcome — and if you dare, they can take the wheel.

After a well-earned lunch, enjoy more runs in the afternoon before settling back into alpine luxury for another dinner and night at the Arlberg Hotel.

Day 3 - Wednesday October 28th - Jamieson-Eildon Tourist drive to Marysville

From the peaks of Mt Buller, we descend into one of Australia’s great driving treasures — the Jamieson–Eildon Road packed with flowing corners, elevation changes, and breathtaking scenery.

Our 175Km drive will see us arrive in Marysville by late afternoon for dinner and a relaxed overnight stay so we are refreshed and ready to take on Lake Mountain the next day.

Day 4 - Thursday October 29th - Lake Mountain Closed Road Drive

Experience the thrill of Lake Mountain’s access road, closed exclusively for our use. Run multiple sessions behind tour leaders on this 10km alpine ribbon, with speed limits that let you truly enjoy the car while keeping it safe.

Once again, passengers are welcome — and yes, if you still dare, they can take the wheel.

After a light lunch at the summit and a few more runs in the afternoon, we’ll return to Marysville for dinner and another night surrounded by Victoria’s high-country beauty.

Get a good night's sleep, because the final day is truly epic!

Day 5 - Friday October 31st - Mt Baw Baw Closed Road Drive

We save one of the best for last.

The legendary Reefton Spur (iconic Victorian High Country road) will guide us toward Mt Baw Baw, where another closed-road driving stage awaits. It’s the ultimate send-off — a final opportunity to stretch your Lotus’ legs in true driver’s paradise.

Starting at Tanjil Bren, experience 16 km of the purest driving roads through the tall high country forests before reaching the top car park at Mt Baw Baw, where you can turn around and do it all again.... and again.

A fitting finale to a week defined by performance, precision, and the shared passion of the Lotus community.
