About
Blairs Hut offers a grassy carry in camping area or a quiet place to stop for a bite to eat whist visiting Mt Disappointment State Forest. Located just down from the summit if you feel energetic head to the trailhead and take a trek up the Summit Walk to the top.
Camping
At the base of Mt Disappointment this camping/picnic area was the site of an old hut. The hut is long gone but the picnic/camping site is tucked away under the surrounding Mountain Ash stands. Here you can pitch a tent and sit back and watch the red belly robins go about their day or take an invigorating walk to the Mt Disappointment Summit.
Getting there
Mount Disappointment is approximately 1 hour north of Melbourne via the Hume Highway, through Heathcote Junction then North Mountain road and Main Mountain Road. At the five ways, take the Mt Disappointment Road for approximately 2km and Blair’s Hut can be found on your right.
