Seasonal fire bans are something that we’ve grown up with, and the feeling of packing away your camp cooking gear as November rolls in is the norm for us. This year, we were in South Australia and they too have a seasonal fire ban, which we fully expected. However, we just crossed over into Victoria,…
Victoria was not a place I expected to find a handful of truly awesome waterfalls, but you’ll find plenty. We explored a heap, but Erskine Falls was another amazing one that we visited not far from the Great Ocean Road, and its completely, and utterly worth a look if you are in the area. The…
The High Country in Victoria is full of a huge number of old, historical huts that are nothing short of spectacular, and on our visit we managed to see quite a number of them, including Razorback hut, which was well worth a short detour, on the way to Craigs Hut. Where is Razorback Hut? This…
After pulling into a truly epic camp site at Frys Flat, I grabbed my phone to look at the nearby 4WD tracks on Newtracs. Once again, there is no shortage to choose from, and the Victorian High Country has months worth of tracks to explore. Not long after though, some locals drove through, and mentioned…
I didn’t think it was possible for the camp sites that we’d stayed at in the Victorian High Country to get any better, and yet Frys Flat Campground proved this wrong. We’d enjoyed 3 amazing nights at Grannys Flat Campground near Jamieson, which is nothing short of spectacular, and then a couple of nights at…
Perhaps one of the most well known attractions in the Victorian High Country is Craigs Hut, famous for the man from Snowy River poem and film, and whilst in the Mt Buller area we headed out to check it out. How do you get to Craigs Hut? There’s a couple of ways to get to…
There are few words that can express how truly amazing the Victorian High Country is, but some of the places we visited certainly give you a good perspective. After spending 3 hours on the Jamieson-Licola Road, we were so excited and pleased to pull into Grannys Flat Campground, and to find that it is nothing…
After spending the better part of two weeks exploring the amazing Victorian High Country, we needed to head north towards NSW to meet up with family, and decided to take the Jamieson-Licola Road. I was a bit unsure of what condition the road would be in, similar to when we did Walhalla Road from Matlock….
There’s a couple of places in the Victorian High Country that have massive reputations, and Paradise Valley is one of them. It looks stunning in the photos, and has a fairly significant price tag to go with it. Normally this would turn us off, but we decided to book in for a night and see…
After banging our way down the final 50 metres of the Telecom 4WD Track in Walhalla, and arriving (with great surprise) right in the car park of the Long Tunnel Extended Gold Mine, I decided it was probably worth doing the tour. We were an hour early, but we’d talked about doing it, and it…
After deciding to head to Walhalla to have a look around, we had two choices of campgrounds that appealed to us; Bruntons Bridge Campground, and Coopers Creek. We ended up at Coopers Creek Campground because it was quiet enough, beautiful and easy to get to, but we headed out to Bruntons Bridge Campground the next…
Rolling into Woods Point, we were completely and utterly shocked at the town. It’s the most beautiful little settlement we’ve ever seen, and it feels like you’ve just stepped back in time a hundred years. Having never explored much of the Victorian High Country before, we were not expecting Woods Point, but set about finding…
