Benalla Bushwalking Club | Mt Stirling

Quick breather: The group enjoys a break at Telephone Box Junction during the trip to Mt Stirling.

Mt Stirling is a delightful place to visit in any season — it is one of the bushwalking club’s favourites.

Recently, club walk leader Fiona Tweedie led a group along Mt Stirling ski trails, starting at Telephone Box Junction and finishing at King’s Saddle.

The group members then continued on to Razorback Hut, where they had a break for early lunch.

Fortunately, the day was warm and still, so walking the soft trails beneath tall timber was a wonderful experience.

One of the group even discovered a clump of dark purple bluebells.

Back at Telephone Box Junction, the usual home-baked goodies appeared for a welcome afternoon tea.

A group of young cyclists also on the trail appreciated the offer of muffins!

It was great to meet the club’s new members and take time to chat.
