Hi all 8 of us are heading to the M Cup after catching up with a mate at
Tumbarumba.
We are in 2 cars (Subaru AWD & a Rodeo dual cab not sure if 4 wd) we are all hitting 50 this year and are sensible (sort of).
My question is, is either of the 2 below
routes ok for us to take.
1.
Tumbarumba - Corryong - Benambra -
Omeo
2.
Tumbarumba -
Tallangatta -
Mitta Mitta - Anglers Rest -
Omeo.
What about dirt sections I have read old forums to see there is dirt sections
What about fuel I assume if we fuel up at either Cooryong or Tallagatta would suffice
Any help is appreciated
Having read old forums on these
routes they appear very appealing

I would probably go via Corryong, Benambra,
Omeo. All very do-able in 2wd. But is slow going due to being mountains/lots of slow bends.
Fuel available in Corryong and
Omeo.
Its a lovely drive. But allow plenty of time.

Thanks 2000RR also how long do you estimate Corryong to
Omeo in terms of time , and how much dirt????? .
We need to get to Sale to catch up with a another mate at a reasonable time.
Appreciate help from anyone as a few of us are from Port Stephens and rest from
Sydney , none of us have been to this region.

I would allow about 3 hours from Corryong to
Omeo. Mostly dirt to Benambra, then tar.
Omeo to Bairnsdale is all tar but still allow a couple of hours for that as it is also windy.
Enjoy!
