Description

The Avon - Mt Hedrick Scenic Reserve is situated north west of Maffra in the foothills of the Victorian Alps, about 200 km from Melbourne. The Avon River winds majestically through the 5700 ha. reserve, over time sculpting beautiful gorges from the surrounding landscape. Complementing this is dry open forest with a diversity of wildflowers as well as rocky escarpments and several high peaks with sweeping views of the surrounding area. For visitors seeking a picnic with a view, Green Hill lookout affords panoramic views of the forest region. It can be accessed by vehicle along Huggett Track. The reserve is fire prone due to the dry nature of the forest environment so please ensure that any campfires are lit in accordance with Fire Regulations; in a 30cm deep trench, less than 1m in diameter, at least 3m from vegetation and not on a day of Total Fire Ban. Please use existing fireplaces where possible. No rubbish disposal is provided; so please take your rubbish with you. Access roads to this camping area are 2WD via unsealed roads. Dogs must be kept under control at all times, especially in camping and picnic areas or near other visitors.
