DRIVING PLEASURE ALONG BLACK SPUR DRIVE
The Black Spur Eighty km from Melbourne CBD.
Is part of the Maroondah Highway between the towns of Healesville and Narbethong in central Victoria.
The road can be driven as a short twenty minute drive or a leisurely thirty minute drive. Roadside legal speed posted signs are mainly eighty km/h. Extensive roadside towering tree ferns and mountain ash trees. The Black Spur is a twisty two way road that demands respect. The road is often damp. A popular road used by cars and motorcycles. Well know as one of the best driving roads in Victoria after the Great Ocean Road. I would agree.
The highlight of the Black Spur is about six km of spectacular mountain ash and ferns. Much more of the drive is of open woodlands and is of about thirty km in total. The road continues onto Marysville. A popular small tourist town in the forested hills. The popular Steavensons Falls is a short drive out of town. The Victorian Black Saturday bushfires almost wiped Marysville off the map in February of 2009. Causing 173 deaths. The small town has since been rebuilt.
