WHAT TO EXPECT

The Plenty Gorge is a wonderful spot North of Melbourne with many incredible trails through the unique bushland!

The two Tracks we'll be taking add up to be 8km and should take around 3-3.5 hours to complete depending on our pace.

A moderate level of fitness is recommended for this event.

The plenty gorge trails are well maintained and recently many kangaroos have been seen hopping around. The Janefield wetlands serve as a great warm up to the Plenty gorge with an easy boardwalk over the lush wetlands where wild birds can be seen in the waters. The plenty gorge is a great mix of flat maintained trails as well as some smaller and adventurous incline sections that lead to the incredible Blue lake and a good spot to take a rest and take some fantastic photos.
