Hike overview

A pleasant return hike with excellent views over the plains all the way to the Alps.

From the car proceed along the dirt road near the creek for a few hundred yards till you come to a locked gate. There is a gap in the fence on the right and follow the signposted Nason Track up the hill till you come to a sealed road. Keep going upwards till you reach a fenced off building, when you take the path to the right.

Stay on the Ridge Track, ignoring other signposted tracks such as Casuarina, Chick Hill & Bluff. You will reach a sign warning of "Risk of Fire Entrapment, approval required to enter." This is for fire trucks, not hikers. You are fine to proceed past it to the top of Mount Glenrowan. There are good views over the township below and the big lump of Mount Buffalo in the distance. Return on the same path.
