Well I've been to Neerim, I love it up there as long as you get some decent rain and right near where I used to live and my parents house.

I've been to Toolangi which is always a bit of fun, but it's used a bit to much for me. There's a few places where they should look at some traffic lights so you don't run into the motorbikes.

Been to Gembrook, again always fun, especially with a few of those BIG bogholes which swallow Jeeps whole and come looking for more. And the buzz you get from thoses powerlines, MAN who needs Beer.

Any others around I should know about guys, I'm sure there is! :D

I agree.

Mud, rain, snow, tough country and more.

Gippsland has it all, as they say....

get yourselves down to ARB or a good bookshop and buy "Bush Tracks of Victoria" by Ron and Viv Moon.

Gives you 25 areas to go and play in and includes areas like toolangi, even drives you up rocky track and mentions the steps. Lots of trip notes and GPS points throughout and some really crappy pictures.

There are heaps of tracks and areas to give you inspiration, you get 104 pages for the bargain price of $20.

tell em I sent you.
but only so I can embarrass you when the guy behind the counter says "who"

Maybe we need a section on trip reports????
Day drive photos and a couple of downloadable videos.
For Victracks of course!

Hope I got this all OK for you.

Out past Walhalla... Head into the deep creek area. There's a track in there that i did an ass-over-tit driving up the hill with a nissan patrol (excuse my blaspheming, talking about other vehicles) - it was steep enough to make the damn thing backward roll! Coolest thing I ever did! Especially since I was out there on my own, on a Tuesday. Anyway, I wasn't hurt much, so I walked out and met some guys with a grader on a major-ish road about a day's walk away from my wreck. All sorted. All insured.

There's lots of nice stuff out Walhalla way.
