Police will resume their search for missing mum Samantha Murphy on Thursday.
Ms Murphy, 51, was last seen about 7am on February 4 after leaving her Ballarat home to go on a morning run.
Police allege she was killed on the same day, but her body has yet to be recovered.
Patrick Orren Stephenson, 22, has been charged with her murder.
Officers will enter the Enfield State Park area, with Victoria Police saying the search will focus on an area “highlighted by intelligence derived from a number of sources”.
Detective Acting Superintendent Mark Hatt said Thursday’s search would involve “a significant number of detectives from the Missing Persons Squad and police from a number of specialist areas”.
“Since Samantha’s disappearance over two months ago, a range of searches and other enquiries have been undertaken in the Ballarat area as part of this investigation. This includes extensive large scale searches such as we have planned this week, but also smaller targeted searches focused in very specific areas.
“I want to assure those in the Ballarat community that police remain focused on doing everything we can to return Samantha to her family.”
