Event Report: Peter and Tony arrived Fri evening and set up camp for two nights. It was pretty cool overnight and a foggy start to saturday ensued Jan Marie and Tony walked from the aqueduct to Cope Hut for lunch - superb campsites abound near the platforms established for the Hotham to Falls walk. We continued on the Wallace Heritage trail to Wallace Hut and enjoyed the magnificent surrounds. After completing the 14km circuit while Peter had cycled a similar route Jan and Marie headed for home. A pleasant evening beside a fire shared with a horse party of two riders was most enjoyable.
On Sunday Peter and Tony drove to Wallace Hut car park and then rode bicycles past the hut and down to the aquaduct and all the way to Fitzgerald hut for lunch. The return ride along the aquaduct was completed safely and we took the opportunity to linger a bit longer at the wonderful Wallace Hut site ![]() |
