Exploring the rest of the coast @ Port C
May 6, 2023 in Australia
Out early before the rain exploring, this coastline is so rugged, powerful yet beautiful. Visited the Grotto, London Bridge, Schomberg reef and Bay of Martyrs before heading back to do a local walkRead more
TravelerThe footbridge is behind the cvn pk and the stairs led up to the lookout but it does do a 4.5km loop, I also saw on one of the tracks that the Rail trail down here goes inland to Timboon, beautiful countryside. We also saw the rail trail started right back in East Gippsland up to Dromana and around Point Nepean national Park, but I have seen rail trail marked alot in Vic, heaps of people hiking or cycling 🙂
TravelerThe landscape is amazing along the Great Ocean Road. I thought you would have a cold day down there today with the cold front moving across. Hopefully the weather improves soon. Get to the shower first Kel, before the hot water runs out.
