Father/Son weekend – April 2017

Published by Club 4x4

Join Arron and Club 4×4 in a multi-generational exploration of the Vic High Country around Craig’s Hut (Craig’s Hut location) in the Father/Son weekend trip.  As the title suggests, please bring your Son or Father along as we enjoy journey in and around Mt Stirling.  Enjoy tales around the campfire, take in the breathtaking scenery and spend quality time with Dad (or son).

Itinerary

Departing on Friday evening, the plan will be to camp at Pineapple Flat on Friday night then early on Saturday, head up to Craig’s Hut and then take on Clear Hills Track over the top of Stirling (only if it is open, which is rare) or down Monument track, onto Bindaree Falls, down to Lovicks Hut, then taking the Bluff Link Road past Bluff Hut and camping at 8 mile Flat on Saturday night. Sunday will be a nice late sleep (and if desired, the 8km hike to Ritchies Hut) before departing via Sheepyard Flat.
