Report: Good 2 hour drive down the monash to the turn off, and then up the hills and was in the bush. Tracks were immediately interesting and there is a HEAP around here that needs exploring. There were some seriously rutted sections that in the winter would pull up some challenges. Nothing a winch and patience cannot handle, but definitely worth a look during the colder months! 2x river crossings. We stopped at one of the rivers to have lunch and the kids had a blast making new friends and walking through the river. The conclusion of this short day trip is that this place needs further exploring.
Rating: 6/10. Would have liked to explore a lot more, but kids were done.
