The town started with an open cut gold mine which closed down in 1903. We had morning tea at the General Store.
A quick stop at Granite Flat which was also a gold village. Only the Church & cemetery remain. Then onto towards Omeo on an extremely bendy road. It was 108km from Mitta & there were no straight sections!
The road went over a mountain in the Alpine National Park. The highest point was 1,400 metres.
Faye took a photo of the vehicle screen showing the road which was typical of the whole trip. Took over 3 hours. Had lunch alongside a creek.
This area caters for bike riders with a special park & tracks going everywhere. Took some photos…
Tomorrow onto the Great Alpine road heading south to the coast. Not sure where we will stop - most likely around Marlo where the Snowy River meets the sea.
