NileGuide Expert Says:
Remote walking trails through towering eucalypt forests have been connected recently to establish the Great Ocean Walk. Encompassing the dramatic coastline of the Great Otway and Port Campbell National Parks, this 91-kilomtre walk can be completed as a series of day walks or linked as a multi-day hike. Camping or accommodation is available.
Description:
- The south-west coast of Victoria offers one of the most spectacular drives in the world. Winding roads, plunging cliffs, eucalypt studded hillsides, primeval rainforests, wind-battered oceans and tales of piracy and shipwreck all feature in a drive along the famed Great Ocean Road. Built between 1918 and 1932 by about 3,000 ex-servicemen; the project was dedicated to those who died in World War I. The road stretches from Anglesea to Warrnambool and includes many highlights such as the much photographed Twelve Apostles, seaside villages and the magnificent Otway Ranges and Port Campbell National Park.
