The Terrick Terrick National Park is about an hour to the west of Echuca. There is a short walking track from the picnic ground to the top of Terrick Terrick (Mitiamo Rock). Due to the park-like nature of the vegetation, a cross-country circuit of this Park can be walked in the late Spring, when the everlasting daisies are at their peak and before the hot weather of summer sets in. A circuit walk could take in native wells and the summits of the two main peaks. Great views of the flat surrounding countryside can be obtained from the granitic outcrops. A map is included in the leaflet available from the pamphlet box at the main entrance to the Park but you should purchase a 1:50,000 topographic map in advance. Camping is permitted in the picnic ground at the base of Mt. Terrick Terrick. Good birding opportunities abound. Day walk (15km): start at the base of Mt Terrick Terrick (Mitiamo Rock), climb the rock and then walk in a north-easterly direction; change direction west and cross the north-south road which runs through the park. Then follow Rogers Track and Allan Track back to the starting point.
