The Site
The Woolshed Valley is not only famous as one of the Richest Alluvial fields at Beechworth but is also the location of the murder of the Kelly Gang by Aaron Sherritt which instigated the famous siege at Glenrowan and the final demise of Ned Kelly in Melbourne Jail in 1880

We drive in convoy from Beechworth to the Woolshed valley via the Chiltern road and Park a short distance from the panning site. From this location we walk the short distance to the creek. You will learn about using the gold pan while hearing of the history of the Valley

Visit the amazing Mt Pilot (Yeddonba) Art site and hear about how the local aboriginal tribes used the land prior to the arrival of the white man then drive to the hidden Valley and see the cliff top Art Site at its head. Do not expect highly colourful bright art as you may see at other locations this art is ancient and faded but VERY significant.

The Site
The first site is also important as it has a drawing of a Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger) on the wall, which is extremely rare on mainland Australia. There is also a interpretative walk where we will discuss how the tribe lived and hunted while the second site has significant religious art on its walls. The second site has one of the few dreamtime people drawings in Victoria

The Tour
We drive in convoy from Beechworth to Mt Pilot and Park at the Toveys Road Art site car park. From this location we walk the short distance to the Art Site. From there we continue around the Interpretative walk and then back to our vehicles where we drive the short distance back to the Hidden Valley where we park again.

From here we walk up the ravine to the top of the Cliffs where there is a wonderful art gallery where there are “spirit figuresâ€� and an aboriginal warrior surrounded by the food and sacred objects that sustained the tribe.  The walk back to the cars along the ridge is through interesting granite rocks and the flora that grows on it.
