Myrtleford's La Fiera car camp - grade 2/3 half day walks plus Italian food and wine festival
If camping, arrive on Friday 16th May at Arderns Caravan Park and pack up on the morning of Sunday 18th May. Cabins would also be available. You would need to make your own reservation.
If not camping then just arrive in time for each morning's walk.
Please advise which option you would like to do.
Friday night could be a group dinner out (which would need to be booked well in advance), camp cooking and camp fire or whatever you would prefer.
Saturday morning, after breakfast, we will do a Reform Hill walk (7 km grade 2 walk which is just over the road from the campsite). In the afternoon is La Festa from 11am to 4.30pm which is Myrtleford's Italian food and wine festival. There are many other festival options as well.
In the evening is the Italian movie night hosted by the Myrtleford Film Society.
On Sunday, after packing up camp, we walk the 6 km grade 2 Myrtleford Mosaic walk along the Ovens River before visiting the amazing Red Ramia Trading store and finish with lunch at Cafe Fez. We would need to book a table in advance.
Of course, this is just a recommended schedule and there are plenty of other things you could look to do.
