Balmattum Hill Walking Track

Balmattum Hill Walking Trail

A peaceful retreat for all to enjoy. Short Walk: The track from the car park to the rotunda is about 300m long, offering a pleasant walk with valley views. The Euroa Rotary Club completed the track in 2001 to commemorate the Centenary of Federation. Along the track, extensive revegetation work has been damaged by bushfire. Observe the results of recovery works. Long Walk: From the rotunda to the end of the track (close to the summit) is 1036 metres (168 metres of incline). This section was constructed in 2011 by the Euroa Rotary Club as an extension to the short walk creating access to the surrounding bushland and views over Euroa township and across the vast Victorian Northern Plains as far as the eye can see. Rather spectacular! Rock stack - During World War II soldiers physically trained by carrying rocks up the hill where they remain stacked along the track side. Both walking tracks are clearly defined and sturdy footwear is advisable. This track links with the Seven Creeks Walking Track (also known as the Apex Track). Dogs are permitted, however in considerations of other visitors and native wildlife please use leashes.
