Valley Views Discovery Walk
Highlights
- Embark on a steep trek through grassy areas and gum tree vegetation, immersing in the unique countryside aromas.
- Reach the summit for breathtaking views of Lake Eildon and the majestic mountain ranges, rewarding your effort with stunning panoramas.
- Navigate through natural obstacles like trees and granite outcrops, enhancing your adventure with a touch of rugged exploration.
- Spot numerous kangaroos along the trail, adding a delightful wildlife experience to your scenic journey.
Another favourite with the locals due to its proximity to the Mansfield township and the good cardio workout it offers. Reaching the top is rewarded with amazing views of the valley including Lake Eildon, The Paps, surrounding farmland and the mountain ranges of Buller, Stirling, Timbertop and the Bluff.
Water, energy snacks and a windcheater are recommended. It is steep and at times there is no formed track, with trees and branches to manoeuvre through. The walk moves through some grassy areas as well as gum tree (bush) vegetation and features granite outcrops.
The kangaroos are numerous and the sights and smells are unique of the countryside.
Approximately three hours including travel time.

Mansfield Bushwalks
Anyone who’s travelled beyond their own front door knows that the only way to really get to know a place is with a passionate local. Monnie Richardson started her pack-free guided walking business with that thought top of mind. She is a Mansfield local who loves to share her knowledge of and deep connection with the natural environment in and around this beautiful pocket of Victoria’s High Country.
Mansfield Bushwalks offer a range of guided ‘pack-free’ short walks and local tours, ideal for all fitness levels and age groups. With the convenience of local pickup and drop-off, Mansfield Bushwalks experiences are a great way to spend a few hours or the day connecting with nature and discovering breathtaking scenery, before returning to the creature comforts of your Mansfield base.
