No tolls, the Spendless folks will show you how to get onto the Western Freeway from Tullamarine (not difficult) then it's a pretty easy run to Horsham. Gas and snacks can be had just off the higway in many places. We've found shopping in Horsham is fine, Safeway/Coles for food and supplies, K-Mart for tarps, camp chairs (essential!), poly rope, towels etc, the Wimmera outdoor shop if you need screw-in gas canisters or a bit of gear. Buy water and/or bring a filter if you have one, the bore water at the Pines is a tad piquant and the tank water in the Gums is worse.

Tell Spendless I sent you, you might just get a discount. Note the insurance excess and think about how comfortable you are with that. Pay it down if not. Your credit card or travel insurance may do that anyway.
