Grade 4 (Hard) - Challenging Walks for Experienced Walkers: Grade 4 on the AWTGS signifies challenging walking tracks.

Explore safely
Planning this hike? Most incidents develop before you even start. Safe outcomes depend on how navigation, hydration, environment, load and judgement work together. Small oversights can compound quickly in Australian conditions. See how it happens in the Hiking Safety Systems Foundations. Then use the Hiking Safety Systems, planning calculators, and make sure a trusted contact has your trip plan before heading out.
Leave a trip plan
Before you go, complete a trip intentions form and share it with a trusted contact. Agree on a Late-Back Time and ask them to call 000 (Police) if you have not checked in. A clear trip plan is one of the simplest and most effective safety steps you can take.
Planning checklists

8 Reviews on “Boroondara Track (9.7km)”
Named for Boroondara Bushwalkers Inc, the club that built the first good track & steps up to Wilhemina Falls & connected that track to the old forestry track back to the river to create a circuit. A Bushwalking Victoria member club.
Vanessa Reynolds oh that’s a great bit of history to learn.
