Following seven editions of 120 Walks in Victoria, Tyrone Thomas, in association with Andrew Close, has gathered the best Victoria has to offer in this brand new publication, 150 Walks in Victoria. The book is organised by region – within each region walks are graded easy, medium and hard so there are walks to suit every level. Walks are described as circuits or retraces and have been planned so that transport can be used to complete the circuits. Fourteen selected walks, some of the best in the state, are overnight walks and will suit campers.
All the classics are here as well as some lesser-known gems. The Great Dividing Trail – from Daylesford to Bendigo – is a feature, as is the Surf Coast Walk, from Torquay to Moggs Creek. Detailed route directions, track notes and time estimates give you all the information you need to tackle the walks with confidence.
