Well-graded tracks through the Alpine National Park. The walk up Mount Bogong is a long but steady climb, then descent. Reasonably fit people will find it a rewarding challenge. The walking is fairly rugged in sections so sturdy walking boots, with good ankle support, are recommended. Walking poles would be an advantage, especially on steeper sections.
