This is a two night car camp starting Friday night at 8 mile camp on the Howqua River. Saturday will start with an early drive up to the walking track to Bluff Hut. It’s a short steep climb up the Bluff, but once up on top it has some of the best views. We’ll be walking along the top of the Bluff cliffs to Bluff Hut for lunch then returning back down to the cars and back to our camp at 8 mile campsite. In total it’s approximately 12 kms return trip.
Sunday mornings walk will commence from our base at 8 mile camp to Ritchies Hut. We will have a choice of a low track and a high track. Walking along the low track we follow the Howqua river to the hut. On the return trip back we will follow the high track back to cars. This should be a nice relaxing walk along the river of approx 12 kms return walk.
Numbers are dependent on 4wds available.
To the best knowledge of the leader this track is rated EASY. Drivers undertake this drive at own risk.
