Wilsons Promontory is one of Victorias oldest and best loved National Parks. Unfortunately however its a long drive from Wodonga to Wilsons Prom  which is why Im proposing to do this extended walk over the post Christmas/New Year period. Im proposing a classic backpack tour of the prom starting at Telegraph Saddle and finishing in Tidal River over the period Dec 28 to Jan 1. You can register an interest by clicking the join button. To commit to this event you must book yourself in and pay the fee of $12.50 per night for four nights as detailed below
