Whether you enter from the north via Myrtleford in the Ovens Valley, or south via Traralgon in East Gippsland, there's no fast way in. Getting there is arduous, and time consuming, and it shouldn’t be tried in a regular, on-demand all-wheel drive SUV - let alone a conventional sedan. Now a part of Victoria's Alpine National Park - but long ago run as a cattle station - this remote area is denied to those wanting to access their holiday destination quickly, easily or comfortably. Nestled in an extensive, grassy valley east of Mount Buller, and about 200km from Melbourne, this region has an exciting, if somewhat mysterious past. One of the most popular destinations in the region is the historic Wonnangatta Station. Those keen to immerse themselves in the beautiful, pristine environment will find the wait well worth it. Mud, snow and rising water levels in the rivers and creeks that thread through the region make access difficult, and it’s only at the end of the winter season that authorities unlock the gates to private vehicles.īut as summer approaches the gates are re-opened, and the region is descended upon by adventurers on foot, horseback, trail bikes or in four-wheel drives. Mostly, the vast forested areas are closed from early June because the roads and tracks are generally rendered impassable. These lonely and largely forgotten areas are accessed only during the summer months, and then via basic gravel roads and primitive bush tracks. Not so familiar, however, are the remote valleys nestling beneath the snow-capped winter peaks. Victoria's north-eastern alpine regions and the winter-holiday villages that populate them – Mount Buller, Falls Creek, Mount Hotham, Dinner Plain, Mount Buffalo – are familiar to every Australian who heeds the annual call of the snowfields. Murder and mystery aside, Jeeps’ capable four-wheel drive system and gutsy Pentastar V6 found the remote homestead with relative ease, and proved a fantastic recreational vehicle from just over $56,000 (plus on-road costs). To put it to the test, we took the petrol-powered Limited variant deep into Victoria’s mountainous north-east to visit to the historic Wonnangatta Station. Updated in 2013, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is one of the best of its ilk, both offroad and on.
