Blackwood – Golden Point Road – Byers Back Track – O’Briens Crossing return
22km, 7 hours
Most of the walk is along the track following the old water race. The remains of some gold mines are passed along the way.
O’Briens Crossing – East Walk – Cowan Track – O’Briens Road – Short Cut track – O’Briens Crossing
14km, 5 – 5.5 hours
The East Walk follows the Lerderderg River downstream and is rough in places and subject to flood damage. Cowan Track is steep and climbs more than 200 metres from the river to O’Briens Road. Return along O’Briens Road and Short Cut Track to O’Briens Crossing.
Overnight Walk
O’Briens Crossing – Lerderderg River – Mackenzies Flat
20km, 2 or 3 days
This is a challenging walk in the Lerderderg Gorge and is for experienced bushwalkers only. It is best to do the walk when the river is fairly low, as many crossings are necessary and at times the riverbed itself is the track. Here you can experience remote, unspoilt bushland.
