ITINERARY SIX

Suggested Stay: Mount Beauty

NATURE TRAILS

DAY ONE

8.30am — Hearty Breakfast

Our local cafes will serve up some tasty goodness to fuel today’s adventures.

9.30am — Mount Beauty Gorge Walk

This is a great little walk, and just 6km return. Venture out to a scenic gorge and perhaps even take a dip.

12.00pm — Lunchtime

Nice views and a range of lunch fare are to be found at the venues throughout Tawonga South and Mount Beauty.

1.30pm — Fainter Falls

We can’t plan you a nature itinerary without adding in the beautiful Fainter Falls, just a 700m walk in from the road.

3.30pm — Wallaces & Cope Huts, Falls Creek

Continue on to Falls Creek and enjoy a 6km return alpine walk on the Wallaces Heritage Trail in summer, or snowshoe in winter.

5.00pm — Bogong Village

On the return drive, stop in at Bogong Village and go for a short walk around Lake Guy. This is one absolutely stunning spot in Autumn.

6.30pm — Dinner Out

Some mouth-watering restaurants open their doors of an evening, so treat yourself to something
delicious in Mount Beauty or Tawonga South.

DAY TWO

7.00am — Bakery Goodness

Open early, grab a bite to eat at the bakery. Make sure you've packed food and water for the day.

8.00am — Mount Bogong Summit

This is a hard full-day hike that will take you right to the summit of Victoria’s highest mountain – Mount Bogong – via the Staircase or Eskdale Spur. Good fitness is required. In winter, or for a more moderate day, explore the numerous walking trails around the base of the mountain at Mountain Creek and Shady Gully.

12.00pm — Picnic Lunch

Pause either at the summit of Mount Bogong – known as Warkwoolowler in the local Dhudhuroa language, meaning place where the people collect the bogong moth – or on one of your scenic walks and enjoy your pre-packed picnic lunch.

6.00pm — Dinnertime

You’ll be famished, so finish the day with a hearty pub meal at the local haunt.
