Geocache Description:

The Murray to Mountains Rail Trail is a wonderful cycling trail between Wangaratta and Bright, with a side track running from Everton Station to Beechworth.   To differentiate between the various sections this part of the Trail is called - Everton to Wangaratta.


The trail is suitable for road bikes.

These are essentially caches placed for cyclists using the Trail.  Car drivers may need to take a pleasant stroll to reach some of them.

This multi uses the new information boards near The Vine Hotel.  There is a lot of interesting information on the boards - they are quite worth a read.
