Hope to travel from Benambra to
Tom Groggin Saturday week. Advice as to the best track to take, any water crossings, if so any idea of the depth have read some previous
blogs and the High Country sounds great. This will be our first time in the Victorian High Country. Thanks in anticipation...

Mike and Lyn there are many alteratives,a fairly direct route could be...benambra to beloka rd then buenba rd then
tom groggin track..mt hope rd...
tom groggin track..dogmans track....
tom groggin.
or aftre mt hope rd turn right to buckwong track , charlies creek
davies plain track dogmans hut ,
tom groggin....
Be aware the
grader has been through many of these tracks recently,while it generally levels and improves the tracks,it also deposits lots of loose soil that turns into sloppy mud with rain in hilly areas eg mt pinnabar .
good camping in many
places,as an example kings plain track turns off
davies plain track and leads to river side camping ,this track is about 7klm long all downhill ,not hard saw a camper trailer in there recently,but takes possibly 45 mins to the bottom , recently graded.
Have a great trip take warm clothes and full recovery gear.
