Peregrine Track (Warby-Ovens National Park)

This easy walk follows the Taylors and Peregrine Tracks from Wenhams Camp to Kwat Kwat Lookout for excellent views of the Ovens Valley and the Victorian Alps.

The walk provides a more direct route to the lookout from Wenhams Camp and can be used as diversion or shortcut from the Friends Track.

The Grade 2 formed track has a mostly gentle gradient until the last 50 metres where it becomes steeper, with a few obstacles. Allow 30 minutes for the 1.7km one-way walk.

Visitor Tips: wear sturdy footwear and carry plenty of water, especially in hot weather.
