About the course

This year Trekkers will enjoy an epic walk through the Bago State Forest along the Hume and Hovell Track moving downhill over boardwalks and bridges and crossing Reef Creek and Duffers Gully under a canopy of Red Stringybark, Peppermint Box and giant Alpine Ash.

Attendees are advised to bring sunscreen, hat, water, and hand sanitiser with them on the day.

What is Tumbatrek?

Tumbatrek is a bushwalk through the spectacular high country organised by Council each year to showcase the beautiful Snowy Mountains region.

An iconic annual event, Tumbatrek provides an informal opportunity for community and government leaders to discuss issues in the region while experiencing the beautiful landscape of the Snowy Valleys region.

Tumbatrek was the brain child of Tim Fischer AC, former Deputy Prime Minister, who in 1985 along with a few keen locals wanted to promote tourism in the Tumbarumba region. It went into recess in 2007 and was resurrected in 2012 by Member for Riverina, Michael Mc Cormack MP.
