Grand Final Long Weekend Border Track Getaway MEDIUM

Vic / SA Border, VIC

See more trips

For those of us not football tragics a long weekend opportunity is calling now the weather is due to fine up a bit.   Thinking max 7 cars.  

Change in plans to get the meeting point closer to home in case the tracks are impassable and to give us more options on the day.  We'll meet at the Nhill BP Roadhouse 9.00 am Friday 30/9. The plan is to head up the Murrayville track to Big Billy, turn right on to Brushcutters track and have a look around the Big Desert state forest. Then go north to Murrayville, across to Pinnaroo and down the border track heading south all the way. The southern section is reportedly boggy but has bypass tracks as I have no desire to get bogged or play in mud.

Understand if people wish to drop out but weather is a factor that may yet effect our plans.

Need to be prepared for bush camping and a few nights of self sufficency and for payment of park / camping fees in cash as required.

A working GPS is also required in case the group has to split up or in case of mechanical difficulty.
