点评:I had wanted to visit this site for decades and finally had the chance this year.
The site is serene and the 30-40 min circuit walk is worth the effort as it gives additional information and historic sites.
The information boards give an impartial view of the confrontation, and provide the background and impact on the police force and their families - so often overlooked in history books. It gave me a better understanding of both sides as I had firmly believed the Kelly side of events.
My wife is not particularly interested in bushrangers or Aust history but found this site fascinating and learned a lot on the day.
Drive is about 1.5 hours from Beechworth, the last 12 kms on gravel on a well maintained road. The site has toilets and picnic tables but very little else in the way of facilities, so recommend taking water and snacks.
翻译:几十年来我一直想访问这个网站,今年终于有机会了。
这个地方很安静,30-40 分钟的环路步行是值得的,因为它提供了额外的信息和历史遗迹。
信息板提供了对抗的公正观点,并提供了背景和对警察及其家人的影响——这些在历史书中经常被忽视。这让我对双方有了更好的了解,因为我坚信事件的凯利方面。
我的妻子对丛林游侠或澳大利亚历史不是特别感兴趣,但发现这个网站很吸引人,并且在这一天学到了很多东西。
从 Beechworth 驾车约 1.5 小时,最后 12 公里是在维护良好的碎石路上行驶。该站点有厕所和野餐桌,但其他设施很少,因此建议带上水和零食。
