Note: Due to severe storms and flooding in late 2022, it has been necessary to amend parts of our tour as some tracks were heavily damaged. We are in regular contact with Parks Victoria as they work to re-open impacted areas. In the meantime, please note our itinerary has been changed and some new walks have been incorporated to maintain a similar, but varied and enjoyable outdoor experience. Please see trip notes here.
