Vic High Country current Fire restrictions

The High Country is a vast area and it is much too early I would think to determine the likelihood of closures over the summer. My son spent a week or so in parts around Mansfield two weeks ago and got soaked every day. The roads from Dargo and Omeo to Mt Hotham were closed due to snow and rain related issues. I suspect it is drier to the east but December can be quite wet and drenching storms are not uncommon. It would be unusual for the parks to be closed but total fire bans happen on average around 8 to 10 times each summer. I think all you can do is closely watch the weather and determine your plans based on the 7 day forecasts. Good luck with it - it is God's own country up there.

Thanks for the info I will re assess in 4 weeks. I have just removed my tractor and motorbikes from our property adj Yango NP so realise conditions can change dramatically from one day to the next. Cheers Rob

It would be wise to give it a miss this year as you already mentioned.
The fire season has already taken a heavy toll on both country and humans and animals.
Be wise to visit the communities battered by them already with very much needed tourism dollars, and hard earned money spent in the battered towns and districts.
Let alone a warm friendly gday .

Dont see the fires letting up anytime soon unless we get much much more rain like today
Than camp as much as you want :-)

I need my itch scratched too
