First and foremost, we made it! It was quite a challenging path, especially the first day (of 6), but we made it to Penola on schedule. The first day of the trek, which was across the cliff tops around Portland, really tested out the TF. The surface (pictured above) was quite rough. The remaining 5 days were mainly along compacted, limestone-based farm roads.
All three of us were impressed with the smooth journey the TF provided and we were all thankful not to have to carry our bags on our back for the 130km walk.
