Mt Vic can be enjoyed in so many ways! First and foremost Mt Vic is my favourite place to go for some light exercise, up and down in about 45 mins, this trail is for everyone. The views on the way up and ultimately at the top are always worth the uphill struggle. If exercise isn't your favourite (like me!) the best way to enjoy Mt Vic is with a picnic at sunset. Such a beautiful, local gem for everyone to enjoy!
Mt Vic is my go-to destination for central city hiking, cycling, mountain biking, and sight seeing. You can start from anywhere, and make the adventure as big or small as you'd like...Pack a picnic to enjoy on one of the many grassy knolls, and be sure you've got ample phone battery for those instagram pics!
