A 5 or 6 day trip walkin g 60 to 80 km over 3-4 days in the Murray Sunset National Park in Victor ia, south of Mildura. This is a near desert environment, flat, sandy and dry. It is a bit of a 4wd mecca, however, our path is primarily walking track only, so we should be mostly on our own. Some of the highlights o f the walk include: - Emus, goats, kangaroos - Possibility of wild flowe rs (We are probably going to be too early, but who knows) - (Hopefully) clear dark skies to see the stars - Walking in a remote desert environme nt; and - Climbing Mt Crozier (just 111m above sea level, but hey, that is still 50m above the surrounding terrain) Day 1 - drive ten hours to L ake Becking camping area. We may walk five KM to get a start on day 2. D ay 2 - 22 km to the Mt Jess campsite (Less if we make a start the day be fore). Day 3 - 18 km to Mount Crozier, possibly camping on top of Mt Cro zier. Day 4 and optional day 5 - up to 17 km per day back to Lake Beckin g campsite, via an alternate return if we go for six days. Final day - d rive another ten hours back home. You are welcome to bring younger walke rs, you will just need to sign an acknowledgement of risks before we sta rt and reach out when you book yourself in to get them registered. You w ill need to be fit, well prepared, and had previous overnight bushwalkin g experience. You will need to carry at least 5 litres of water, there a re no reliable natural water sources on this walk, we are totally relian t on Vic Parks topping up a small number of water tanks along the route that may be empty. Also, remember that this is a desert environment in w inter, and below freezing temperatures a possibility. Sunrise about 7.30 am - Sun set around 5.30 pm.
