Bullock's Creek is a short drive from Stringybark Creek.

This is the place where Ned, Dan, Steve & Joe among others cleared 20 acres in order
to make whisky and work for gold in order to raise money to fight to free Ned's mother.

A still was used to make whisky, remains were found in the 1960's.

This is where they had a fortified hut, the gang fired at local trees with targets drawn on them.

The remains of the last 'target tree' was removed from here in recent times.

A saw mill was built close to the Kelly site, sawdust remains to this day.

Today you can walk to the site of the fortified hut and gold workings.


The track has logs and other obstacles to dissuade visitors, especially those in four wheel drives.
