Walhalla to Dargo Madness MEDIUM / HARD

Briagolong /Licola/Dargo, VIC

See more trips

Because of the high volume of traffic that will be in the Walhalla area on the same weekend of this trip, I have decided to avoid the area altogether. With the aid from Alan (thanks for the idea Al & for help planing new route) please take note of new starting point. We intend to still do the tracks as planned for the Dargo area & a few new ones for the trip home:

Meet at The Quarry Reserve Camp Ground (not sure if there is drop toilets here?) on Friday in your own time. I hope to be there by 5pm ish. The camp ground is just out of the small town of Briagolong where you can get fuel & supplies if needed.

We leave camp Saturday morning & hit the tracks straight away and get to Dargo Pub at about lunch time. After lunch we will do Conway Tk & scoot around & go up Billy Goats Bluff Tk, head down & camp at Horse Yards Flats Camp Ground.

Sunday will be quite a bit of 4wding on some great tracks & heading to Huggets Crossing. We should arrive at Maffra (or there abouts on bitumen) by 3.30 to 4.00 to air up & head off home from there.

As per my original trip there will be many very steep tracks, river crossings & challangers along the way. There will be many oppertunities for stunning photos from the top of mountain peaks across valleys etc. There will also be many river crossings to contend with so the challanges will be as before.

I think that this new route might even be better than the original with much more 4wding on the Sunday with a shorter trip home on bitumen (by about an hour or so).
