Walhalla to Avon River area camping trip - grand final weekend MEDIUM / HARD

Walhalla to Avon River camping trip, VIC

See more trips
Heading from Walhalla- starting on Beardmores track across to Fulton's Creek Tk and across to camp the first night at Turpins Flat, then up around the bottom of the Avon Wilderness area and camping alongside the Avon River for the 2nd night. Route is planned, though having not done a lot of the area for day 1 this bit is open to change if need be.

Aiming to challenge myself a little more with Fulton's Creek Track in its entirety. Then across to some easier stuff around Avon area, heaps of river crossings, some good boggy areas and steeps. And the views are the best I've seen.

There will be quite a few kms travelled in days 1 and 2, but we take it slowly, so if you like a fast paced trip this isn't for you. We stop and admire views, have coffee breaks if we feel like it. So if you get impatient with this stuff then leave the spot for someone else.

Have at least one other vehicle joining at this stage. May be more.
