Left around 8am and our first section was to Mt Stirling. This involved a circuit road around the upper part of the mountain which involved some rough 4WDing and to huts and waterfalls etc.
The highlight was to visit Craigs Hut, up a 4WD track. It is not a genuine high country hut as it was built as a set for the films "The Man from Snowy River". It did burn down in a bushfire but was rebuilt some years ago. Had morning tea there.
Along the track took a side road to Bindaree Falls and another hut.
Not a lot of water but you can get behind the falls.
Had lunch at Howqua Gap and then a 4wd track across to Mt Buller.
Was pretty quiet around the village being summer.
Then a bitumen road, 56km back to Mansfield.
Along the tracks and roads here are some birds/flowers and a special gnome house...
It was built to honour the Mountain-pigmy possums that live in the mountains.
Had fish and chips for tea...
