2015 Brochure
We start our journey in the Thredbo Alpine Hotel — follow the mighty Snowy River to its mouth at Marlo — criss-cross the High Country, made famous by the movie ‘The Man from Snowy River’ — visit ski resorts you have only heard of and traverse the Great Ocean Road to Warrnambool; before finishing on the banks of the Murray River at Mulawi, on Anzac Day. And what a visual feast you are in for! The Desert Duel has now visited every state and Territory in Australia (plus NZ). In 2015 — the 100th Anniversary of the Gallipoli landing — we will be going to Victoria, the forgotten state! The state you pass through on your way to Tasmania! Our 15Th Year Anniversary!
