OVERVIEW
Come and experience what is destined
to become one of the world's great hikes - right on your door step.
Opened in 2006, the new Great Ocean Walk spans 91 kilometres of one
of the most spectacular stretches of coastline in Australia. If you
think you already know this area from driving the Great Ocean road
think again!
The walk takes you to unspoiled and previously
inaccessible terrain, far from crowds and traffic. Breathtaking
coastal scenery, deserted wild beaches, sheer cliffs, historical
lighthouses and shipwrecks, giant mountain ash forests, pristine
river estuaries, abundant wildlife, dunes and coastal heathlands all
await the adventurous trekker on this exciting expedition.
The
Great Ocean walk extends from Apollo bay through the Great Otway
National Park, to the famous Twelve apostles near Port Campbell.
Along the way it traverses some of Australia's most amazing coastal
scenery, cutting through the Otway National Park where mountains and
forest plunge dramatically to meet the Southern Ocean. The trail is
rich with wildlife as the Otway national park is home to over 60
threatened species, so expect to see Wallabies, Koalas, Echnida's and
other iconic Australian wildlife on your hikes as well as abundant
birdlife.
We have chosen the highlights of the walk for this
event, offering some of the most spectacular and remote sections of
the trail to showcase the wonderful diversity of scenery and
habitats.
