Vic High Country Trip 15 - 18 May 2015

[Bacho86]

Hey guys, will be heading to the high country next weekend for a 3 day trip.

Plan will be leaving Friday night around 6pm heading east and campimg around Licola.

From there rough plan will be to head up Dingo hill track, New Caledonia / Butcher Country track, Zeka spur track then head across to Wonnangatta for camp Saturday night. Hitting up some other tracks around Talbotville area aiming towards Dargo and head back to Melbourne monday morning.

Open invitation to anyone that wants to tag along and also to any suggestions for tracks to do in the area or campsites to stay at!

Given the terrain we will be tackling, vehicles we'll need to be well set up, reliable and have winches / recovery equipment etc

Hmm can't mate but if I was free I'd loved to have joined you. Same weekend as pizza night too

No worries mate, yeh I saw the pizza night invitation the other week, but I've had this penciled for a little while now.

Really good trip that. Done it a number of times.
We normally head up billy goats, then back to licola and home. If your heading towards dargo. Randels track is worth doing.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll check Randell out. I was keen to do billy goats (and still might ) we just didn't like the look of the amount of "main road driving" or retracking , that you had to do to get there and back!

If you head to dargo from wonnangatta you'll drop down onto the wonnangatta road from the Cynthia range. And will pass billy goats on your right a couple of Kay's down
Be a shame to drive past it and not up it. Even if you came back down to continue on to dargo.

Just check seasonal closures, as some tracks have already closed for the winter.
And we want lots of pics.. Love that area.. Shame I'll be on the couch that weekend.

Yep that's true, not sure if we'll head down Cynthia Range to Wonnangatta or stay the northern side of the river and do a bit more around Tallabotivlle area via Tea Tree range or Sarah Spur tk at this stage, but thanks for the feedback!
