As the “Amblers” turned right to study the mosaics under the Barwidgee Creek bridge, the “ Ramblers” bounced across the swing bridge and set off on the 2km track along the Ovens, enjoying the sounds of the birds and the rushing water, and keeping an eye out for mosaics hidden on rocks and tree routes. At Apex Park we stopped for a morning tea break and admired the painted walls of the amenities-birds, mountains and trees covered every wall. But we needed to move on before the Amblers caught up, so set off to connect with the Rail Trail and do a circuit of the town. Along the way, we found mosaic balloons floating up an old brick wall, and we also spent some time studying both the Big Tree, an ancient red gum, and the Phoenix tree.
With about 5km under our belts we returned under the Barwidgee Bridge for more mosaics, and enjoyed lunch under the trees with the Amblers. The rain kindly held off all day.
The Myrtleford Mosaic Trail has both an active Facebook page, and a website, myrtlefordmosaictrail.com.au. It is a great way of adding interest to a walk for young and old.
