We left Adelaide and just continued to drive. We're a little like hire ponies I think. Once we got a whiff of Melbourne, we wanted to get there. We stayed in a rest area just east of Horsham. A bit noisy but we slept well (a big drive (by our standards anyway) from Adelaide). We passed into Victoria and found it pretty much as we had left it back in May (wet and windy).
Driving east from Horsham we were keen to take a pretty circuitous route through The Grampians past a place called Zupsteins. After a 50k detour south down C216 we came to a sign that read "the road past Zupsteins may not be suitable for Caravans".... you would think they might have told us 50k further back but hey. We back tracked and managed to stay on some sealed farm roads which was a very picturesque route. Things happen for a reason.
The Grampians was much as we'd left it about 40yrs ago when last we were up here on the motorcycles. It's still a nice spot with some great walks and scenery.
We stayed a little south at Dunkeld. A little cheap council park in an even smaller town.. a good bakery but!
Every walk has steps, stoops, cracks and crevices
Last time we were here there were no fences. The "degree of pucker" is now not as great...
