Hi All
Another few days with a difference over the Anzac Day long weekend.
The Otway Fly, a must do event for April 2016.
The cost of the Tree Top Adventure is $25.00 per person - pay on the day ( unless you want to go on the Fly then login and book on line )
If you drive down Saturday Morning leaving Alb/Wod about 7:00 am or so. Please Call Me First
Easiest way is Freeway to Geelong then Princess Highway to Colac, about 470km and a bit over 5 hours. then down to the Otway Fly, another 45km for an hour.
I am going down Firday morning and set up car camp at Stevenson Falls. (Stevenson Falls Reserve to Otway Tree Top Adventures - 50km 1 hour )
As this is the Anzac Weekend - and sites may be hard to get, we decided to make Stevenson Falls Reserve our Base Camp for he weekend
There are other options for camping as well - We will have hot shower thanks to Trevor -
