Hi everyone,
I'm planning a 3-day, 2-night bushwalking trip in early July with a group of six mates. We're looking for challenging hikes with great views within about 2 hours’ drive from the ACT (up to 3 hours max if it's really worth it).
We’ll carry all our gear and have ways to purify water, so remote tracks without refill points are fine, especially if a river is nearby. Ideally, the trail would include places to camp along the way (formal or informal), and interesting features like caves or lookout points would be a bonus.
We're fine with snow or cold conditions, so alpine trails are definitely on the table, as long as they're safe and accessible.
