Swagmen used to talk about “taking to the wallaby track” and swamp wallabies are common in the regrowth messmate and peppermint forest on top of the Divide.
Departing from Norman Lindsay’s home town of Creswick, you'll travel around St Georges Lake through rolling pastoral countryside ringed by volcanic hills that contour next to the state’s longest timber tramway system, and a traverse through an impressive one kilometre long railway cutting on a long abandoned railway line. More tall forest with a side trip to Sailors Falls delivers you to the cluster of mineral spas waiting for weary bodies and feet at the twin towns of Daylesford and Hepburn Springs.
