Tallarook beginner trip 27th - 28th Feb EASY / MEDIUM

Tallarook, VIC

This is a trip running alongside Kevin's trip. His trip is a 1 day and I looking at staying overnight. The plan is to meet up at the two CFA water tanks at the Corner of Horans Track and Broadford Flowerdale Road at 10:30am. Kevin group will head off in one direction and we will head off in another meeting them for lunch. After lunch we will head off and finish loop.

 

We will camp overnight at the reservoir. I've been told there is fish and yabbies in reservoir so bring a rod and reel. There are fire pits at the camp site but we'll need to check fire danger closers to day.

 

 

 

 

Day 2 (SUN) will either be a recon looking at other tracks or people can head off after breakfast. That can be discussed Day 1. 

 

 

If we do not get 3 vehicles for this trip I might just make it a day trip.


Some items to bring:

Tent/swag, Sleeping bag etc.

Lunch (SAT), Dinner (SAT), Lunch (SUN)

Chairs

Hi James,
Would like to bring the family but we can only do a day trip, can we join just for the day ? Don't have the gear for an overnight trip on the move with the family.

Cheers.

We are meeting at 5pm at the CFA water tanks, we were going to stay at the reservoir but Alax said it was closed off last time he was there. so we might have to stay at Freemans.

Hi James,
The family has backed out, good for me so I'll leave straight from work tomorrow (Bayswater) and should be at the tanks by 5.00 so will stay the Friday night at least.
Cheers,
Alex.
