Relaxing weekend at Top Crossing Hut – March 2017

Published by Club 4x4

Join Ian and Club 4×4 in a relaxing and peaceful weekend to Top Crossing Hut.  As the title suggests, if you wish to go for day trips out from camp, feel free to do so; conversely, if you feel like lounging around taking in the scenery, this is appropriate too.  There are always plenty of fish to catch not too far away at Lake William Hovell as well.

Itinerary

Departing on Friday evening, the plan will be to meet at Mansfield then venture into Top Crossing Hut, crossing the King River a few times before getting into the secluded campsite.  From there, it is make it up as you go, the relaxing the better.
