STORY IDEAS There is more to summer than sandy bathers and crowded beaches. On top of the world, in the magnificent High Country, stunning views combine with clean alpine air and a cool climate to create the perfect getaway. If you want to escape the city for some well-earned rest and relaxation take the go-slow path; there’s no hurry in the mountains. Grab a coffee and papers to go, and find a spot in the sun with a view. You’ll find yourself mesmerised by the scenery long before you’ve finished the headlines. Slow walks thr ough mountainous ash forests and shaded ferny glades reconnect you with nature. Long lazy days followed by panoramic sunsets soothe you into holiday mode. You may never want to leave. If life in the fast lane is more your style, you can step it up a notch with more adventurous pursuits like mountain biking and trail running. You’ll never feel more alive than when you are careering along knife-edge ridgelines, plunging down single-track descents into narrow log-bridge crossings, or slogging, one foot after the other, up rugged mountain paths that seem better suited to mountain goats. It might not be easy, but that’s the point isn’t it? Mt Buller & Mt Stirling Summer Media Guide 2017-18 5
