Truck drivers are preparing their rigs for the return of the Crawlin’ the Hume event for 2024.
Crawlin’ the Hume is a biannual event that takes place in Victoria for the truck drivers of Australia to display their classic trucks and celebrate the history and relive the memories in a convoy up the Old Hume Highway.
Set for this Saturday, the event plays a part in reliving and retracing as much of the old Hume Highway as possible from Campbellfield to Albury.
The run is currently capped at 300 vintage and classic trucks, which will leave Campbellfield by 8.30am on the morning of April 6.
The convoy will then travel up the Hume through Beveridge, Wallan, Kilmore, Broadford, Tallarook, Seymour, up to Winton and then onto Albury.
Trucks are coming from as far as Queensland and New South Wales to participate alongside many locals of the Mitchell Shire and surrounds.
Organisers suggest the rest area atop Pretty Sally as a prime viewing location as the trucks travel north from Wallan to Kilmore.
