Royal Wedding Dodge at Baw Baw Walhalla Area MEDIUM / HARD

Baw Baw National Park, VIC

See more trips

A weekend away from the royal wedding in Baw Baw national parkMeet up will be at
Caringal scout camp 9 km from Erica @ 66 Telbeit Road, Tyers Junction

This is a pay per person per night camping ground and will be our base camp for the Saturday night at $12.00 per head

This gives you great amenities with hot showers, toilets and fire pits and is a great place to spend the night, please bring a bag of fire wood

if you can or be prepared to lend a hand cutting some.

We will be there on the Friday night so feel free to arrive then and leave a comment and let me know your intentions

Heading out on the Saturday morning we will meet those that can't make the Friday night at the camp site and head off into the well known spots around

O'tooles and Merringtons having a look at a few of the local huts, from here I've been asked to include a Ladies leg of the journey so those blokes with partners

move over and hang on.. Army track is our intended Ladies run, which is relatively easy with a challenge at the top or a chicken track around if you prefer

This will be at the discretion of the individual drivers of course, just an opportunity not a requirement.

On Sunday I am Happy to discuss our days journey with the group as we have lots of options from the easy to

medium hard on low saddle track with a nice water crossing.

This trip imo will be medium, with water crossings and require knowledge of your vehicle and driver ability

we may have challenging sections that may be considered Hard by some if we have unanimous group consensus and choose to have a look.

Pin striping is probable as some of the tracks are overgrown.

This trip will be weather permitting.

 

Will need lift and good tyres
Snorkel Required
Recovery gear essential as always
Extra Fuel recommended

If its wet, dont do low saddle. We were there a few weeks ago and it turned into a slippery dip too dangerous to continue had to go out via Aberfeldy Bridge and that was a white knuckled uncotrolled slide out as it was.

Robbie said there is plenty of room there, but he is going to book a certain section for us so just rock up. I hope the weather stays kind to us.
