MAPS & FURTHER READING
Maps and books on the area can be purchased on the tour, a catalogue will be made available for you.
MAP
DIRECTIONS: Travel along Princes Highway to Moe and follow well signposted road to Walhalla. From Walhalla travel 9km to the junction of Binns & Walhalla Roads. From Walhalla the road becomes gravel. Turn right onto Binns Road and travel to the end, 10km. At the end turn left, this is McEvoys Track. From here it is only 8 kms to The Springs. The Springs is a large clearing on both sides of the road. If you wish to camp here please do so on the right hand side, this being the better position.
Another straight forward route and just as easy is from Traralgon, head to Seaton. From Seaton just proceed straight ahead (no where else to go), this is McEvoys Track (a great road to travel on), this will take you straight to The Springs.
