The Buffalo plateau in north eastern Victoria is an ‘island in the sky’. It is geographically separated from the high mountains along the Great Dividing Range, and is a refuge for mountain species, with Alpine Ash forests, snow gum woodlands and open frost hollow plains.
As part of the Friends of the Earth forests campaigns we host guided walks in the Victorian high country. This trip to the Buffalo plateau will be the first one for summer 2025/26.
Join us for a one day wander on the plateau to explore some of the remnant Ash and snow gum forests that survived the intense fires of the 2000s.
We will meet at Lake Catani campground at 9am on sunday November 16, and do two 2 hour walks to explore sections of remnant and recovering forests.
You would be welcome to camp with us at Lake Catani on the sunday night and join our collaboration with Protect our Winters on the monday: a tree planting and film night. Details here.
