itinerary
This morning we’ll meet in central Melbourne and head north. Our first day’s drive takes us through stunning Victorian country landscapes. After a quick lunch, our first challenge begins as we make our way to the summit of Mt Timbertop, whose flat top is unmistakable. The first half of the track is through a forest of tall Manna Gum trees with abundant wildlife winding to an open area that offers views of the mountains to the South and valleys to the West. The summit is a home to beautiful Snow Gums that offer a welcome shade on sunny days. After we descend, we’ll head to our accommodation in Mt Buller. Dinner tonight is eaten at a local eatery celebrating the start to our adventure in the Victorian Alps.

I have dietary requirements, will I be catered for?
Of course, we will happily arrange for any dietary requirements you’ve noted during booking to be catered for. Please advise your local guide on Day 1 as well.

As part of your training, we recommend making use of your free time to complete a full day hike and if possible, get up and do it again the next day. You should aim to be able to walk in hilly terrain for 6-8 hours comfortably over consecutive days.
It is sensible to start training as early as possible before you go on your trek.

From online fundraising to trivia nights, to bake sales and out-of-the-box ideas, we have years and years of tried and tested tips to make your fundraising a success.
What happens if I don’t meet my fundraising target?
It’s normal to worry you won’t meet your fundraising target, but we know you can do it. In fact, with the support of Inspired Adventures, almost everyone goes on to raise far more than they imagined.
By registering for the adventure, you agree to raise the minimum fundraising amount specified. Like you, we are looking to make a significant impact for our charity partners, so the goal is for each person to have met their fundraising target before departure. If you fail to raise the minimum fundraising target by this time, we will review the situation on a case-by-case basis.
I’m joining with a friend, can we fundraise together?
Absolutely! Fundraising with a friend is a great idea. Just remember the fundraising target is per person, so you will each need to meet the minimum fundraising goal to participate. We know you can do it.
Are donations to my fundraising page tax-deductible?
The funds raised for Street Side Medics are tax-deductible (conditions apply).
What is the cost to me?
You are committing to raising $3,000 (per person) for Street Side Medics.

It is up to you to ensure you have fully comprehensive travel insurance and you will need to share these details with our team before departure. For more information, please visit www.inspiredadventures.com.au/travel-insurance-information.
