The bottom half of Big Baw and upper half of Aussie Rules will be closed 7 days a week during felling from mid-September to March/April 2024.
The road below the Aussie Rules exit will be closed from Monday to Friday. It will still be possible to pedal up from the Aussie Rules exit at all times.
The harvesters have made a lot of effort to keep Upper Big Baw into Lower Aussie Rules open, and we're co-operating with them to protect Big Baw during harvesting, so please don't ignore the closures.
Open at all times until end of felling operations:
Upper Big Baw
Lower Aussie Rules
Fire Road above Aussie Rules exit.
