Beautiful day here so went out on a mini tour of Chiltern, Howlong, Barnawatha region.
Been looking for the freeway crossing of the old Hume Hwy at Chiltern and found the road mostly covered at a railway crossing.
Followed the Chiltern back roads over the Murray and found The federation walking track beside the river at Howlong. Would be a good one to walk in winter.
Proceeded back through to Barny on the Murray Valley Hwy and had a great walk up along Major Mitchells track at Chiltern valley wetlands.
This area is part of the gold rush diggings with large quartzite hills created from the mining here.
The track is literally paved with gold (fools gold)
