After ~9 months, we have finally made our way to the final stretch, Sunbury to Diggers Rest.
The reason I have chosen this as my stop point is mainly because from Sunbury onward is all electrified, and although Metro use overhead electrification, the tracks are far more heavily surveilled and also fines for these tracks are astronomical.
Diggers Rest was formerly the final stop for the morning V/Line's long as Mum and I can remember, but in the early 2010's it was removed from the regular stops and became a purely Metro station.
DATE: TBD
Distance EST: 18.4km
Duration EST: 4 Hours 8 Mins
I've had ideas for more walks in this area, and I have even had ideas of working my way up to walking from Swan Hill to Nyah West, but that will require some work I think.
However, on a recent visit to my cousins house in Nyah West, I took note of the distance between the historic Lake Boga, and Swan Hill, and very manageable ~15km, (18.4km via farm roads and Swan Hill Airport).
I'm pretty keen to do more walk's in this region, and nice change in terrain, where the land begins flattening out heading up toward Mildura, and when a good mate from high school reached out about potentially joining me on a walk, I thought this one would be a perfect fit for a good catch up and morning or arvo in regional Vic.
