wilburforce Posted 30March, 2018 Report Share Posted 30March, 2018 OK guys so I need some road tips getting from Melbs to Porepunkah. Heading up with the family in a fortnight and want to find the windiest route through the hills. What’s the best route? How does the Whitfield Rd from Mansfield go? If anyone is keen for a blast through Hotham and the high country roads I’ll be out with a few others on the 13th and 14th April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vl gra Posted 30March, 2018 Report Share Posted 30March, 2018 Whitfield is one of the best roads out there. Can't go wrong IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalai Posted 30March, 2018 Report Share Posted 30March, 2018 Reefton to Eildon. Across to Jamieson which is now all sealed. Up to Mansfield through to Whitfield and on to Porpunkah if you have a full day for the drive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9fan Posted 31March, 2018 Report Share Posted 31March, 2018 Eildon to Jamieson will certainly give you a full dose of windieness !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick S Posted 4April, 2018 Report Share Posted 4April, 2018 I'm not too familiar with roads getting to Porepunkah, but I have spent quite a bit of time staying at Mt Beauty and driving through the surrounding twisties. I can't recommend enough the Omeo Highway through the Mitta Mitta Valley. Not sure how much time you have for driving while you're there, but if you take the Kiewa Vally Highway up to Tallangatta, then follow the Omeo Highway south through to Omeo. From there you can head back via Dinner Plain and Hotham. Alternatively from Omeo you can head back along the Omeo Highway for a bit and head up the back of Falls Creek then back through Mt Beauty and accross the Tawonga Gap. Some pics of my trips below. Happy driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harvs11 Posted 5April, 2018 Report Share Posted 5April, 2018 A great alternative to the Kiewa Valley Highway is Gundowering Road/ Mullagong Road from Mongan’s Bridge to the Murray Valley Hwy Occasional cows crossing but fewer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
