Hi Natalie,

Welcome to Chockstone. A few suggestions for trekking; anywhere in the high country; Bogong high plains...

A few suggestions for climbing; Buffalo, Arapiles; Grampians; You Yangs; Werribee Gorge.....

A few questions; What sort of climbing you looking for; what grades; where are you located; do you have any gear; what's the square root of 274.3; do you have transportation??? ;)

You forgot to ask what do they really want, as like the other recent query on Chockstone, this poster did not wait around to engage in reply / responses with an 11 second log in period!
~> It's another 'newbie', ... possibly giving the term a bad reputation? ... though I am happy to be proven wrong!

Edit: NW info recorded for the record...

I reckon you're on the money M9 though I'm hoping Natalie is real, and not another spam-bot...

If these occurences of newbie invasion are spam-bots, what is in it for them?
Are they practicing their software refining technique to simulate more realistic interaction with people? ... If so, then I reckon ES is on the money!
Heh, heh, heh.

Hmm.
Newbie NatalieWitt has since 'Last logged in 20/11/2012 at 4:47:44 PM' ...
Maybe the User ID is a real person with a real question?

~> OK, given the minimal information to refine an answer, as provided by the questioner, I will help out...

How hard a climb or trek are you looking for, and what time of year? ... as we wouldn't want to sandbag you by offering something inappropriate!
As M75 suggested; try Mt Arapiles (NW Vic), for rockclimbing, or if your climbing aspirations are more trekking style, try Mt Bogong in NE of Vic.
