Boggy Creek Walk- Thur 23 Apr
Boggy Creek Walk
08:00 – 13:00
We will meet at the Minyon Falls Picnic Area at 8am then head along the path that follows Boggy Creek up to the Rummery Park Campground. There we will stop for a snack and a cuppa before heading back the same way to Minyon Falls. An easy walk though the path is a bit rough in places. Boggy Creek walk is an easy, short walk that allows you to meander through the rainforest at your leisure between Minyon falls and Rummery Park campground in Whian Whian State Conservation Area. The walk is a great one for the kids and is popular throughout the seasons. In the cooler months, it’s much quieter and you might even find you have the area all to yourself. Along the way back we may stop for a swim in one of the many pools near the creek side section of the walk. This area is lovely; large turpentine trees, water gums and brushbox line the creek, as well as blackbutts and flooded gum. After this we will head back and take in the breathtaking views at Minyon Falls lookout, where Repentance Creek plunges over 100m, flowing down over enormous cliffs that were once part of the Mt Warning Volcano.

Mt Cobberas Wilderness Apr 26 - May 1
Mount Cobberas
26-04-2026 06:00 – 01-05-2026 22:00
Mt Cobberas 1 and Mt Cobberas 2 are my spiritual hiking peaks, overlooking Cowombat Flat where the Murray River rises. Don and I were introduced to this wilderness area at the southernmost end of Kosci National Park when we were students, by 'old Norm' who ran the Buchan General Store. We are drawn back periodically and would love to share it. You would need to be in Melbourne for an early drive with us on March 12, or driving down from Canberra through Jindabyne that day. All but the last day is offtrack. The twin peaks are around 1800m elevation and they look east over the Byadbo WIlderness area, north to Mt Pilot (1800m ) and Kosci. The VIctorian Alps are seen in the distant west. This is rugged country with the Australian Allpine Walking Trail passing under the peaks to the west.

Christies Creek - Sat 2nd May
Mooball National Park
09:00 – 16:00
A shaded walk in Mooball National Park through pretty palm-filled gullies, grass trees, flooded gums and red cedar. We will follow an old fire trail then a walking path downhill to Christies Creek. It can be overgrown in places. We will have a cool break at the gently flowing creek. We walk along the creek for a short distance then cross it on a good log. Bring morning tea and lunch. The circuit then continues through the rainforest uphill along a walking path. Grade 3 with some downhill and uphill but a reasonable grade, roots and uneven path. About 10km, approx 4 hours.
