Erkine Falls are stunning

Erskine Falls; a big, beautiful single drop waterfall in 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…

Razorback Hut in the High Country

Razorback Hut; another great High Country Hut

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…

Dmax and camper at Rubicon

High Country with a Hybrid Camper; where can you safely go?

The Victorian High Country was a region that I was very excited to explore on our Lap of Australia, but I really struggled to find out what was suitable with a camper trailer, and what wasn’t. If you were a local you’d know this already, but for someone coming from a different part of the…

Mitchell Track Ruts

Howqua 4WD tracks; amazing Victorian High Country adventure

After a fantastic day exploring Bluff and Lovicks Hut, courtesy of some local recommendations I sat down to see where we could head the next day, from our great camp site at Frys Flat Campground. Newtracs shows that there’s a huge number of 4WD tracks, but I wanted something that we could do in less…

Parked at Bluff Hut

Bluff and Lovicks Hut; sensational High Country adventure

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…

Mt Buller Camping

Mt Buller Camping in the staff car park

After 3 amazing nights at Grannys Flat Campground, we’d planned to pack up and head to Mansfield, and end up somewhere around Mt Buller Camping. Our day didn’t start off that well though, with wet bedding from one of our kids, and relentless rain that made packing everything up rather challenging. Despite this, we got…

Frys Flat Campground is beautiful

Frys Flat Campground; our favourite camp site in the High Country

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…

Craigs Hut is a special place

Craigs Hut; an iconic and beautiful hut in the High Country

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…

Our amazing camp site at Grannys Flat

Grannys Flat Campground; magnificent High Country Camping

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…

Driving the Jamieson Licola Road

Jamieson Licola Road condition; a road you might not want to travel

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….

Mt Margaret 4WD Track

Mt Margaret 4WD track; a mean track, with insane views

Keen on a challenging 4WD track in the Victorian High Country that will take your breath away? Check out the Mt Margaret 4WD Track! Whilst staying at Pardalote (one of the Licola Free Camps), we decided to head out for a few hours to check out the 4WD tracks in the area. We had limited…

Licola bridge and river

Licola Free Camping; endless options with great views

After a fairly expensive night at Paradise Valley (for us) south of Licola, we were keen to see if we could find any camp sites not too far away that would be of a similar calibre. If you don’t know, Licola is a tiny location in the middle of the Victorian High Country, that is…
