ThePacman: If you get out to the Brisbane Ranges again soon, keep an eye out for the wild flowers, particularly the
Grevillea steiglitziana (also known as the Brisbane Range Grevillea).
It is found nowhere else in the word but here, between September and January

Come earlier if you would like to hike the scenic Ted Errey circuit before the BBQ.

When : Sunday 21st September, 10am to 2pm
Where : Stony Creek Picnic Ground, Brisbane Ranges.
What : 10am - hike of the Ted Errey Circuit (9km).
12pm - BBQ. There are many picnic tables around. Bring and BBQ. Wood BBQs (and limited gas BBQs) are available.

The easiest access to Stony Creek is to drive along the Geelong-Ballan Road (C141), and then drive into the Brisbane Ranges (S37 52.360 E144 14.756) and travel north along the gravel Switch Road to the picnic grounds.
