About

Craig's Hut Return

Craig’s Hut and the ghosts of The Man From Snowy River (or Tom Burlinson at least); big views from Craig’s Hut over Northern Alps, Cobbler and Mt. Buffalo; 360-degree views from Mt Stirling; fun bomb down Bluff Spur Trail; wildflowers of Sterling plains.

Ever wanted to run to a bush icon? How about one that you've most likely seen on the big screen? Here's a belter that rises out of the Stirling Resort Bowl, creeps up over Stirling mountain and then asks you to work hard to arrive at Craig's Hut, the film location made famous by The Man From Snowy River. Sure, it was built for the movie, rather than being an actual relic of the brumby rider days, but it's a heck of a stunning and atmospheric place (and the hut is real). Add in the views (from both Craig's Hut and the summit of Stirling) and you have a memorable half marathon trail run.
