Stathbogie ranges MEDIUM / HARD

Strathbogie ranges, VIC

See more trips

Never been to the area before and wanting to check it out. Done a little research and expect the tracks to be fairly mild but hoping to find some hard stuff so be prepared. For this reason winch, decent tyres with good tread and a full recovery kit is mandatory. No real plan, just go for an explore and see what we find. Will be camping the Friday night if anyone wants to come up early.

My mate just sent me a bunch of photos of his rooftops map that has a heap of circled / highlighted tracks to checkout. Some of which aren't actually marked on the map it's self. We might have trouble finding the start of the tracks, some of them have secret entrances apparently. He thought about coming but he has other stuff on.
