The nearby Barmah/Moira/Gulpa Island forest offers flat bushwalks on flat country. Most of the trees of this swampy area are River Red Gum or box. The best bushwalking area of the forest is probably Gulpa Island. Obtain local maps and survey the area by vehicle to plan a walk. I have led a 16km walk from Cranes Bridge near Mathoura following seldom-used forest tracks to the Edwards River bridge (Millewa Forest Road also known as Tocumwal Road) but a car shuffle is needed; if you do this walk, stop off at the bird hide on the way back to Mathoura. Alternatively, walk from Cranes Bridge to Langmans Sandhill, avoiding the Gulpa Creek Road and using seldom-used winding tracks. Again, a car shuttle is required.

Allow a full day to complete this 16km walk
