TRAIL HIGHLIGHTS
ART TRAIL
Eight artists took inspiration from the theme of connections, each responding differently, exploring such things as connection to country, the local environment, and the history of the trail
CHEVIOT TUNNEL
Located midway between Yea and Molesworth, the Cheviot Tunnel is the longest rail trail tunnel in Victoria. The 210 meter tunnel is an ideal spot to take break and explore!

Don't miss the stunning scenery of the Trawool Valley. Rolling hills, green fields and the Goulburn River flowing along the valley floor makes this part of the Great Victorian Rail Trail a must.

Spring-like days on the Great Victorian Rail Trail, enjoying native wattle and avoiding native magpies. Yep, it`s that time of year again. Love the perfect on-leash style, modeled here by Pepper the Borderhund.
