• Mount Buffalo - Victoria

    February 15, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C

    Mount Buffalo is located in Victoria's High Country, about 60km south east of Wangaratta in North East Victoria, Australia.
    This was out third visit to this great park and it never fails to amaze us.

    The trip was to take the 4WD up to the Horn at the summit of Mount Buffalo to retrace our journey undertaken on motorbikes in 2016, when at the time there was still snow on the ground.
    After completing this, we were actually quite amazed we did this on road bikes, in particular the heavy Yamaha FJR 1300.
    The highest point on Mount Buffalo is The Horn, at 1723m elevation.
    The majority of the plateau is at 1300m-1500m elevation.
    Mount Buffalo is an astonishingly beautiful mountain.
    It has a diverse landscape and flora, ranging from bush to tall trees with ferns carpeting the ground, giving it a tropical look, to the snow gums above that are short and stocky.

    The road is a windy journey used by both cars and cyclists & the view from the horn is breath-taking.
    I have also shared some memories from when Phil and I were here in late December 2016.
