Man from Snowy River (4 Days)
Four days of four wheel driving through the Snowy Mountains awaits us on this trip. We camp beside famous rivers such as the Snowy and the Murray. We will see the mountains that inspired Banjo Paterson's famous verse and stumble across pioneer huts amidst snow plains.
The scenery changes dramatically from fern filled gullies to treeless snow plains as we climb to the very top of Australia. You will marvel at the lookouts with views that go forever and gasp at the steep four wheel drive routes that we traverse. We may chance an early snowfall or bask in the crystal clear blue skies of the high country.
This trip is available in the school holidays and at Easter, our specialty is spending New Year's Eve on the roof top of Australia.
