Experience the majestic splendour of the magnificent Grampians with Walkabout Gourmet Adventures. This unique area offers spectacular mountain scenery with peaks over 1,000 metres and numerous species of wildlife.
In spring, the national park is ablaze with an endless variety of wildflowers – it truly is a botanical paradise. Before European settlement in Australia, a large part of the Grampians was occupied by aboriginals. Today, the region contains the greatest concentration of Aboriginal rock paintings in Victoria.
The Port Campbell and Otway National Parks are perfect locations for some fascinating coastal walking. Explore long stretches of un-spoilt coastline and walk in the rainforest hinterland which provides shelter for an array of unique wildlife. You will visit the famous 12 Apostles – huge limestone pillars worn and weathered by the stormy southern ocean. The magnificent Melba Gully is the jewel of the Otway National Park and is renowned for its dense forests of myrtle beech.
In these marvellous regions, you stay in the best of both worlds – dramatic mountain scenery combined with the spectacular coastal landscape. Stay in delightful accommodation and enjoy delicious cuisine from these different regions.
