DESCRIPTION
The Victorian Alps is a vast and beautiful alpine area featuring the state’s highest peaks. On this tour, we’ll walk across grassy snow plains, climb rocky summits and take in spectacular alpine vistas across Mt Dunn, Mt Feathertop, Mt Bogong and the dramatic river valleys below.
This trek isn’t for the faint hearted, and a excellent level of fitness is required as we take on Victoria’s highest peaks. Our biggest day of walking takes us along the Razorback trail (Mount Feathertop). The climb to the summit of Victoria’s second highest mountain (1922m) gives us incredible views – within the grasp of most walkers with an excellent fitness level.
We will also ascend Victoria’s highest peak, Mt Bogong. The climb up via the Staircase Spur track, climbing through the peppermints, then mountain gums, snow gums and finally breaking out above the tree line. From there we achieve the summit cairn, and stand upon via Victoria’s highest peak at 1986 meters.
