Sunday Drive Touring / 4WDing around Marysville EASY

Marysville, Ribicon, Snobbs Falls, Mount Torbreck, VIC
See more trips

Planning an easy trip around the Marysville area for this Sunday 4th June 2017, will be a mix of touring and 4WDing, plenty of photo opportunities as there will be a couple of look outs thrown in.  The trip is easy with only a few tricky sections which any decent 4x4 with A/T tyres will handle. If you are looking to bash your car around, sorry this is not the trip for you however if you are new to 4WDing and want to take your car out, meet some new people and see some beautiful spots jump on.

Hey Alex, yeah it was good. I lead the trip and it all started coming back to me when i was on the tracks, it was a good day, I really love that route. We gave the middle track out of the 3 (you know the section) a crack but was to slippery and that section has rutted out a lot more. Woods Point is such a great destination, we has a lamb / pork spit roast for dinner cooked by Rick. It pissed down Saturday night and we planned to do Old Coach and German Spur but just went home in the morning as we were all soaking wet. Oh and it started to snow on the way back.

Awesome :-) Next time let me know there's some good alternate ways home not often travelled we can go over it.
Snow eh..... rubs hands. I'm thinking about an overnight snow trip this year swagging it outside for those brave or stupid enough to join me !!!
Anyway, won't hijack your Sunday drive post further have fun !
PS check out our photos on Alan's Tallarook trip it was a riot, I'm sure he'll post up a trip report soon but the pics say 1000.

I'd be keen for this, but have to back for work by 5.30pm so I'll let someone else have the spot this time.
Cheers for the trip though.
