What to plan a trip to the Victorian High Country next year for 2 weeks.

When is the best time of year to visit?

I've heard they close alot for fire season and snow. Is this true?

I've heard the river crossing and hill ascent/decent are great fun. Am very excited to doing this trip.

Thankyou

IMHO the best time to visit is in November just after the seasonally closed gates are opened.

Yep mid-june to end october is offical close time - however much of the hard stuff is not in the well know big-name tracks but is closer to melbourne and never gets closed.

Nothing gets closed for fire season unless there is a specific threat
and that has always still left large areas free.

Agree with Pointyhead that if you want high river crossings then go for november/december however if your into general exploring then Jan-april is the way to go , preferrably out of holiday times.
