If you want to get there then have a look at this guide: Circuit Road – Mt.Stirling. This is probably the best driving guide on that region. Travel from Mansfield along the Mt.Buller Rd towards Mt.Buller. Turn left at the Stirling Rd which begins at the toll gate at Mirimbah. This leads to the Telephone Box Junction – entrance to the Circuit Road. The entrance to the Circuit Road via Stirling Rd is approximately 32 km from Mansfield. Drive along the Circuit Road for about 20 km and then turn right to the Clear Hills Track. The Circuit Road is suitable for 2WD cars but the Clear Hills Track is 4WD track. It’s only 1.2 km long so you can walk to the Craig’s Hut if you do not want to drive on Clear Hills Track. The Circuit Road is closed during snow season – first weekend of June till beginning of November. Position

A change in leadership also means an opportunity to reset the conversation.
The Mountain Cattlemen's Association of Victoria looks forward to continuing to advocate for the issues that matter most to our members, regional communities and everyone who values our public land.

For nearly 50 years, MCAV has worked with governments of all political persuasions. While governments come and go, our focus remains the same:

🌿 Practical, science-based public land management
🔥 Better bushfire preparedness and fuel reduction
🐕 Effective wild dog and pest management
🐎 Humane and sustainable brumby management
🚜 Supporting regional communities and traditional High Country industries
🏕️ Keeping Victoria's public land accessible for responsible recreation
🏔️ Protecting and recognising the heritage of the Victorian High Country

These priorities don't change with a change of Premier.

We will continue to advocate respectfully, work constructively and ensure the voices of those who know and care for the High Country are heard.

If you could put one issue on the new Premier's desk tomorrow morning, what would it be?
