Autumnal colours, a bubbling brook and sunshine regaled the 12 walkers on this nice adventure. Following Yackandandah Creek, we walked from Osborne’s Flat, heading to the delightful village of Yack (as the locals call it). Currawongs called, magpies carolled, and the track was good as we chatted our way. Three new walkers, Les, Wendy and…
WRB News & Events
Myrtleford to Gapsted, Stanley State Forest : Sunday, 13th April
Seven of us from Warby Range Bushwalkers set out for this hillside adventure on Sunday, 13 April. We started near Gapsted Wines, and it was a bit fresh with quite a breeze blowing, so we walked fast to warm up. Up and into the bush, then along a bush road we meandered at the edge…

Lower Ovens above Peechelba :.Thursday, 10th April

MOUNT BUFFALO PLATEAU 3 PEAKS – Mt Dunn, The Monolith and Lake View : Sunday, March 23, 2025
On Sunday March 23rd, a fine and sunny day greeted the 16 walkers choosing to hike up on the plateau of Mount Buffalo. The original loop walk was altered slightly to take in Mt Dunn, the Monolith and the Lake View summit. This enabled three peaks within close vicinity of each other to be explored,…
YACKANDANDAH CREEK WALK, 26/4/25
Autumnal colours, a bubbling brook and sunshine regaled the 12 walkers on this nice adventure.
Following Yackandandah Creek, we walked from Osborne’s Flat, heading to the delightful village of Yack (as the locals call it).
Currawongs called, magpies carolled, and the track was good as we chatted our way.
Three new walkers, Les, Wendy and Christine enjoyed our cheerful company, and Morning Tea saw us sitting Creekside on a log, in the dappled light, enjoying treats and coffee from our flasks.
A few families cycled passed by, waved and went on their way.
At Yack we lunched under huge trees, their leaves changing colour to yellows and tans and russet.
We returned to our cars along the same path. Why not?
Running water and lovely bends in the creek opened up delightful scenes.
Before we headed for home, we enjoyed coffee, sticky buns and/or pies at the Gum Tree café. A great way to finish a lovely autumn walk.
Karen, our leader, had suggested this walk, and we all agreed it was beautiful.
