Tarra Bulga Scenic Circuit (8.2km)

The Tarra Bulga Scenic Circuit, located in the Tarra Bulga National Park, is truly one of the most beautiful hikes close to Melbourne and is well worth the visit. This hike is a good introduction to the area and follows a combination of the popular trails around the Visitor Centre. The Tarra Valley is home to some of the best primeval rainforest in Victoria. You won't be disappointed in the beauty of this place.

The trail starts near the BBQ at the North end of the car park at the visitor centre. Take Link Track, shortly this arrives at the gravel road. Walk past the water tank to take Scenic Track. This winds through some very beautiful forest before arriving at the swing bridge. After crossing the bridge, at the next junction take the left to Ash Track. The next junction will be with Lyrebird Ridge Track, take the left to follow this. This then becomes Forest Track at the picnic area. Follow this for nearly 2km. When you reach the junction you can take the left to head down to Wild Cherry Track. Then return back to the junction with Forest but take the left to continue along this to Old Yarram Balook Rod. This will return you to the main road where you need to walk up for a few minutes to reach the car park a the Visitor Centre again.
