Day 294 – 7th December 2011
Mt Beauty Holiday Centre, Mt Beauty, VIC
After breaky we drove to Perischer Valley to walk the Porcupine Track through snow grass, snow gums and small scrubs to a large group of granite boulders (Porcupine Rocks) providing extensive views of the Main Range and Thredbo Valley (5km return – 1.5h). Next we took the very winding but scenic road through Kosciuszko National Park via Thredbo, a popular ski resort in winter, and with a photo opportunity at Scammell’s Ridge Lookout to Khancoban where we stopped for lunch. Back on the road it didn’t take long before we crossed the NSW-VIC border at the Murray River. We travelled along the Murray Valley Highway to Tallangatta, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way. A lookout near Old Tallangatta provided nice views over Lake Hume, which forms a part of the Murray River. Past Tallangatta we took the road to Kiewa and headed south to Mt Beauty where we had a quick look at the town’s main street and pond.
