Hi all
We will meet at the car park in Isaacs Park opposite the hospital in Yackandandah at 9-00am to join Don and other folk and then proceed to the start of this walk. If time permits we may drop back into Yack Village for a coffee after the walk. This walk will involve some hilly terrain and distance up to 10km involving possibly up to 200 metres climb led by Don Ingram.
Hillsborough was a mining town in NE Victoria 15 km south of Yackandandah which has been deserted since the 1920s
