Rubicon Valley Heritage Walk | Medium, 17km

About this Adventure
This walk is all on track and we will follow the Rubicon Heritage Walk but will add in a 3km walk out and back on the same track to see the Rubicon Falls.
Highlights are the trestle bridges, the aqueduct, the beautiful mountain ash, beech and ferns and seeing and reading about the timber harvesting history and the first Victorian hydroelectric power scheme ( 1929) that is still in operation today.
