Autumn in the Snowies Tour (3 Days)
I have always thought that one of the most beautiful places I have ever driven through is the Snowy mountains region in Autumn. The large number of Autumn coloured trees that abound around Canberra, Tumut, Batlow and Tumbarumba at that time of the year make it magical. As a result, I’ve always wanted to offer a 4wd trip at this time of year that would take us through this spectacular countryside. Well of course, we have the perfect trip and I’ve been running it in Winter and Summer for a while now, so why not offer it in Autumn and let me show you this fantastic area in Autumn.
This trip is based on our very successful Christmas in August and Summer in the Snowies Tours.
We will venture from Canberra through the Brindabella Ranges with a little 4wd action on the way. Then travel via Tumut where we will explore their streets festooned in a thousand Autumn colours. Then to Batlow and Tumbarumba and our overnight accommodation at the magnificent Tumbarumba Motel. This trip is a fully accommodated trip with dinner and breakfast included. The restaurant in Tumbarumba is fabulous and it’s a 2-minute walk from your room. Just bring lunch for each day and morning tea.
On Day 2 we will explore the nearby state forests and national parks, and then guide you through magnificent scenery all the way to the Jingellic Hotel beside the mighty Murray River for lunch, bring your own or eat in at the hotel. After lunch I have more incredibly scenic touring back to our beautiful motel.
On Monday (yes we are making it a long weekend for you) I’ll lead you via a great 4WD track to witness the Autumn beauty of Talbingo, and then over the Snowy Mountains to Adaminaby with more magic countryside touring tracks to Bredbo where we will conclude the tour just an hour south of Canberra.
