These are four separate walks that give an idea of the variety on Mt Buffalo. It is possible to sit out any of the walks if you’d like as they are separate and three begin at pleasant picnic areas. I will decide on the departure time and order of the walk according to the weather. […]
The ride begins at 10:00am at the former Everton Railway Station, Everton and is basically all uphill to Beechworth on the sealed Rail Trail. The bonus is a thrilling downhill freewheel to Everton. If we feel up to it we might do a 9.5km town loop before we find some lunch at one of the […]

There are a number of very short walks on Mt Buffalo that give great views. We often pass them by in favour of bigger walks. Whilst they are all fairly steep, they are short and I’m in no rush. Participants can chose to do all or some of the walks on offer. Lake View: 2km. […]
This is a slow ramble on Nail Can Hill, Albury. It gives plenty of opportunity for admiring the range of wildflowers on the hill, taking photos and catching your breath. Whilst we will be going up and down the hill twice there will be absolutely no rush. It’s at the lower end of grade 3. […]

The Track goes through native bush and spectacular grass tree stands on Munderoo plateau, with views […]
This ride begins in Yackandandah and follows the new bike track to Beechworth with some challenging ups and downs. There is an option to start near the roundabout on the Wodonga/Beechworth Road and thus avoid the uphill from Yack. (But then you won’t get the thrill of freewheeling back to Yack!). We’ll lunch somewhere in […]
