The distinct four seasons of the Upper Murray means kissing goodby to those snowcapped mountains and turning your attention to other outdoor pursuits.

A hidden waterfall nestled in the heart of the Upper Murray emerged last autumn and Thowgla Falls, located on Marginal Road in the Thowgla Valley, near Corryong, is now more accessible to all. Seasonal road closures to protect adventurers and take care of the unsealed roads in the Parks and State Forests are set to reopen the first weekend of November which will add many more trails to explore! Don’t wait until then. Get out and start enjoying this wonderful region today.

As a result of wet weather 🌧️ a section of Marginal Road in the Nariel Valley, between Dunstan’s Road and Thowgla Falls, has been closed to keep drivers safe and reduce damage to the road. 🚧

It’s hoped the road will reopen in time for the Melbourne Cup weekend. 🏇

If you’re planning a visit to Thowgla Falls, you can access Marginal Road via Walkers Road during dry weather only in a four-wheel drive. 🚙

If you’re planning a trip to your favourite recreation reserve or camping spot, please remember to:

🚗 Drive to conditions. Recent rain has made roads slippery
🗺️ Be prepared with maps by visiting: www.ffm.vic.gov.au/permits-and-regulations/closures-of-parks-and-forests
🛑 Obey all signs and road closures

Our Forest Fire Management Victoria crews are continuing to monitor road conditions and may close additional tracks if they become dangerous.

Lawrence lookout today

The mountains have magic.

On a cloudless day, the view from Lawrence Lookout reveals just how far you can see across the mountain tops. This wonderful drive has features that comes upon you unexpectedly when travelling the Murray Valley Highway.

Not the first location that comes to mind when it comes to being awed by mountains dusted with snow which perhaps what makes it that much more captivating. When travelling from Tallangatta to Corryong this view from Shelley towards the Australian Alps will appear unexpectedly. Be sure to take the time to stop.

Discover the nearby Mountain Creek Nature Trail and Avondale Gardens. Something the whole family will enjoy!
