My sister Katie and I traveled to the Snowy Mountains this weekend for a day of horse back riding. This is the setting for the film The Man From Snowy River (and The Return of the Man from Snowy River) which I have been a big fan off since childhood (horses + mountain scenery are a big win for me). The trip was beautiful and a fun experience to share with Katie.
We took the coastal route to reach the Jindabyne (day trip from Melbourne) where we started our ride and for the return trip we drove through the mountains and high country. The drive was very scenic as we traversed winding roads, crossed over the crest of the mountain range and passed through green valleys.
