Great Victorian Rail Trail - Part 9

Sun, 27 Mar 2022
09:50 - 16:30

Join in on the final leg of the GVRT from Bonnie Doon to Mansfield. 

GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE:  Moderate (due to distance), 19 km point-to-point walk on a formed track.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: After meeting in Mansfield at the Visitor Information Centre, at 09:50am, we will carpool to the Bonnie Doon Hotel and then commence the final leg of the rail trail to Mansfield. The trail follows close to the highway most of the way. On arrival at Mansfield, it will complete the 134 km (plus some) walk from Tallarook via Alexandra. Note: We will not be viewing or crossing the rail bridge across Lake Eildon, as this adds another 2 km to the walk. This could be done on the return drive home. We will stop for refreshments before heading home.
