All in the hands of your friendly (Canberra-based) MudMaps guide.

Day 2: Snowy Mountains & Snowy River

We start today's journey by making our way to Jindabyne in the Snowy Mountains. From here we head into Kosciuszko National Park, off the beaten track, through beautiful sub-alpine tall eucalypt forests and wind our way down to the intersections of the famous Snowy and Pinch Rivers. Enjoy a BBQ lunch (weather dependent) cooked over an open camp fire.

Day 3: Snowy River National Park & McKillops Bridge

Admiring the Snowy River N.P. scenery along the way we'll also stop to explore the Little River Gorge and/or stroll to the waterfalls cascading off the Gelatipy Plateau. A visit to McKillops Bridge really does enforce the power that once flowed in the Snowy River. From here we travel through the Alpine N.P. in the shadow of the famous Cobberas twin-mountains and onto the little towns of Benambra and Omeo.
