Hi Victorians,
I have always wanted to explore Gembrook and the local area by 4wd.
I am thinking about organising a WEEKEND trip over this way.
Tentative weekend in October - still to confirm date (it was postponed for mid October however that weekend is GACO so a lot of campsite will be full).
Firstly who would be interested in joining me for a bit of four wheeling???
Are people available on the 22nd and 23rd October???

from memory Nash Creek camping ground is good, large area has toilets and fairly straight forward to get to.

Lol I know - did that in a RAV 4 and it was b!@#$ly hard work. Yeah Pineapple flats would be perfect to camp! Maybe we should go one weekend in November then

Haha in a Rav4?? No wonder it was hard lol.. I know the tracks around that area pretty well and a few nice things to see.. I camped just up from Pineapple flats last time i was there.. If we were going to have a meetup there pineapple flat would be the go for sure.. Probably would be best planned for the end of NOV when all the tracks are open again
