Hi folks,
Hope everyone is getting pumped to get out hiking this extra long weekend. Looking like some pristine hiking weather before the daylight really starts to fade!
My partner and I are hoping for some advice about this plan i've come up with to spend 3 nights up in the hills (2 1/2 days and 2 full days)
Day 1: plan to leave melbourne early Friday AM to Harrietville. Walk from there to feathertop up the Bungalow spur
Day 2: Fed hut to Westons via Diamantina spur (down and then straight back up again!)
Day 3: Westons to Diamantina hut via Machinery or swindlers spur
Day 4 Cruise/fall down bon accord (steep!) to Harrietville and leave to Melbourne.
We're not too fussed about getting home to Melbourne late.
Would love to hear your thoughts, reckon it will be a struggle but might manage to get it done. We're not as fit as we have been but have walked the south coast in tassie without much difficulty (if that helps for comparison. My wife isn't so speedy on the downhill due to a little fear of heights (bon accord looks ok but diamantina looks a little scrambly in places which will make it slowish going)
Much appreciated in advance folks!
