About this event


VERY DIFFICULT  TRIP

Trip Leader -Simon and Beckie Maiwald

Toolangi Mud and Fun

This is information for one of the Trips being held for Muster 2025 - Bookings can be made at Muster HQ on Friday 25 April 2025.

This trip will leave from Muster 2025 at Valley Farm at 10am.  Trip Briefing will be at 9.30am at Muster HQ.  

We will enter Toolangi State Forest at Anderson Lane and air down.  A short drive along a medium track and then then fun will begin.  This track is not named but we have labelled it "Jacinta's Track". The first track has lots of mud, deep ruts and steep inclines and declines.  You will be winching on parts of this track. 

After completing this fun track we will stop for lunch and then head over to a few other very difficult tracks.

Depending on time we may find a short track to finish the day before heading back to Valley Farm for Muster Saturday Dinner.

If it rains this trip will become more technical and very muddy and we may change some tracks based on the conditions.

Booking Sheet will be at Muster HQ on Friday 25 April 2025.
