THE FRONT BOOT
CORRYONG SAYS ‘COME AND VISIT’
Corryong, Vic, locals are calling on RVers to
spend some time in their town following the
devastating bushfires.
How lives weren’t lost there is a miracle, but
they’re already busy rebuilding, so if you’re
able to visit and leave a few dollars behind,
they’d love to have you. Amazingly, grass is
already growing back after the rain, and the
local caravan parks are open for business.
The Man From Snowy River Bush Festival,
April 2-5, has loads of activities throughout
the town, and plenty of camping and
accommodation options. Now in its 25th year,
the proceeds will all go to bushfire recovery:

Even sooner is the Towong Cup on March 7
(Victorian Labour Day weekend). Soak up the
atmosphere of country racing, with Victoria’s
oldest free-standing grandstand and
sweeping views of the Snowy Mountains:

Get to Corryong via the recently launched
cross-border Great River Road, a touring route
between Bellbridge and Khancoban along the
Murray River. It features local fauna in five
public artworks, and its many wayside stops
offer picturesque views of the Murray River,
Upper Murray valley and Snowy Mountains.
Whenever you can get there, you’ll find plenty
to do at Corryong:
