GET OUT THERE
SUNDAY MARCH 1
After a weekend of inspiration, it’s time to get out there and experience the High Country for real. Join local fly fishing tours, guided bushwalks and hands-on outdoor workshops — from casting a line in river or lake to chasing waterfalls, caring for your gear or climb up on Mt Buller.
Find your wild.
FLY FISHING WITH ANDY
Find your wild on the water with a small-group fly fishing experience, limited to just five participants.
All gear is supplied and no experience is needed — just curiosity and a sense of adventure. Your morning begins with a relaxed casting session on the grass before stepping into the river to put your skills to the test, guided by local experts in Howqua in the heart of the High Country.
Sunday 1 March, 10am - 1pm.
To book contact your guide Andy on 0434 053 566 or [email protected].
ADVENTURE BEYOND THE EDGE
Located on the West face of Mt Buller, overlooking the Delatite valley is Australia’s first and only alpine Via Ferrata, RockWire. Italian for ‘Iron Way’, Via Ferrata is a structure climbing route where participants are permanently connected to a steel safety line and use metal rungs stuck into the rock to assist in climbing. This makes it possible for nearly anyone to scale a mountain cliff 1000m above the valley floor in complete safety and as a total novice. If you can climb a ladder and hike for a few hours you can do this.
Join the exclusive 2pm Route 1 tour just for ‘Find you Wild’ participants and only pay $199.
To book contact 1800 BULLER or email [email protected].
KAYAK IN JAMIESON
FIND YOUR WILD with a self-guided paddle down the Jamieson River. A classic High Country float that rewards a little effort with mountain views, birdlife, and that unmistakable Jamieson calm. Launching from the Jamieson Caravan Park, this 1.5-2 hour adventure winds toward the Jamieson Brewery. With gentle Grade 1 rapids, quiet river bends, and deep swimming holes.
Current low river levels mean there’s a little bit of walking through shallow sections early on — consider it part of the adventure. Wet socks, laughter, and a cold beer at the end are all part of the deal. Pack water and a sense of adventure for this one!
Kayaks, paddles, life jackets, and flexible pickup are included. Book online.
CRAIG'S HUT 4WD ADVENTURE
Travel rugged mountain roads in an Australian-built OKA 4WD, stopping at breathtaking lookouts and hidden spots along the way. With a knowledgeable local driver sharing stories of the land, history and nature, this easy, all-ages experience lets you soak up fresh mountain air, stunning scenery and unforgettable High Country moments — without the rush.
Sunday 1 March, full day.
