Locals and keen walkers are invited to join Member for Eden-Monaro, Kristy McBain (pictured below), and Snowy Valleys Council Mayor, Ian Chaffey, for Tumbatrek 2024.
Held on Saturday 10th February, this year Trekkers will enjoy an epic 9km walk through the Bago State Forest along the Hume and Hovell Track.
Community members can join the trek at a low cost of just $10 per adult and $5 per child, including morning tea and lunch.
An iconic annual event, Tumbatrek provides an informal opportunity for community and government leaders to discuss issues in the region while experiencing the beautiful landscape of the Snowy Valleys region.
Trekkers will walk amongst the Red Stringybark, Peppermint Box, and giant Alpine Ash moving downhill over boardwalks and bridges and crossing Reef Creek and Duffers Gully as they take in the native scenery under the tree canopy.
Buses will ferry participants from the Tumbarumba Creekscape to the starting point at Paddys River Dam.
Community registrations are open until Sunday 4 February 2024.
Numbers are limited so don’t delay.
