Mt Brutal or Emperor Loops Grade 4 and a Grade 3 Day Walk
Join Barbara for a Grade 3 walk of the Emperor Track Loop 8.5km with some steep up and down sections.
Or join Sharon for a Grade 4 walk of 12.5km on the Mt Brutal Loop with many steep up and down sections and one particularly steep climb for nearly 1km which is more like a crawl.
Mt Brutal Loop is not suited for anybody with heart, ankle or knee issues. If there has been any rain overnight, we will not do the Mt Brutal Loop at all and default to the Emperor Loop. Both walks start and finish from the same spot which is approximately 6km off the Murray Valley Highway on the gravel Cravensville Rd. Bring morning tea, lunch and thermos.
