G`day mate,
Google the Bendigo 4WD club for contact info, I believe they have permission to use the old quarry area at Epsom.

Regards,

Scrubby.

An hours and a bit west of Bendigo is the Pyrenees which is just excellent 4wding

the widow maker is pretty much one hill in the park there not worth calling in but the old quarry before the fosterville mine is good .

mt sugarloaf near axedale has a widowmaker as well not for the fainthearted.

there is also another just out of chewton near castlemaine.
having said that like bonz mentioned the pyrenees is certainly worth the trip over.

cheers
