In regards to getting from La Trobe directly to the All Seasons, there is no direct bus stop out the front of the All Seasons. The best bus route from La Trobe to the All Seasons would be for attendees to get on the route 61 bus, get off at stop 3 (Murphy Street and McIvor Highway) and then walk up McIvor Highway to the All Seasons, Google maps this as a 15 minute walk.
