Approx 10km

Starting at Hovell tree park, we will walk up to the bridge and cross the river. We will follow the new upgraded path along the river.  Most of it is on formed path both sealed and unsealed, there is a section which is not formed and may be wet or muddy, please wear appropriate footwear. This is a dog friendly, however there may be cattle in a couple of paddocks and dogs will need to be restrained while we walk through. Bring snacks and something to drink. Toilets at  start, end and about 3km from the end.

 

GRADE 2

No bushwalking experience required. The track has a hardened or compacted surface that may have a gentle hill section or sections and occasional steps.
