INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this trip is to explore the alpine region of Victoria, setting up base at our accomodation at Bright. Bright is located 4 hours from Ashburton (departure point) however the trip we’ll be taking will include some rest stops to charge the EV being driven. We will have a realistic range of between 320-380km’s depending on temperature, weather and efficiency of driving, with the idea of sharing the driving load between us.
MEETING LOCATION
1A Normandy St, Ashburton VIC 3147
This is my personal home, and has ample free street parking for the night, though my suggestion would be to group up before arriving here.
BRIGHT CHALET
113 Delany Ave, 3741 Bright, Australia
This is the location of our accomodation and will be where we stay for two nights. Accomodation is paid for and confirmed.
PRICING
Accommodation is charged to the group at $640 for two nights with up to 6 places to sleep. I believe there are three rooms in the apartment, with the three of us each having our own space. Total cost is $213.33 Each.
Address: 113 Delany Ave, 3741 Bright, Australia
Additional costing includes hire of snow chains, and charging costs… These are not likely to add drastically to the overall cost.
