Ferris Walking Track - Bunyip State Park




On Thursday afternoon June 25, 2009 I journeyed out to the Bunyip State Park, 65 km east of Melbourne.

My task was to explore the Ferris Walking Track, located deep within the southwestern section of the Park.

The Park had been closed to visitors after the Black Saturday fires, and many of the tracks have now been reopened.

Ferres Track links the Mortimer Picnic Ground with Silvertop Ridge Track, passing through excellent forest and fern gullies, along the Diamond Creek Gully.

There are two footbridges and a boardwalk - the total distance is 4 km return.

Sections of the Track are steep, with an increase in altitude from 69 m to 128 m.
