Ellis Rowan believes walking eight kilometres through damp Victorian mountain ash forest completely resets city screen fatigue. On Sunday mornings, he catches the early train to Upper Ferntree Gully with his daypack before stopping at Manze in North Melbourne for Mauritian flatbread. He assesses trail closures and sudden mountain weather changes to ensure safe weekend returns.
