The Otways

Walking in the Otways

Some of Australia’s best rainforest scenery can be found in the Otway Ranges behind Lorne and Apollo Bay. Walk among tall trees and giant tree ferns at Maits Rest, see ancient and intricate plant life, lush ferns and mosses at Melba Gully or experience the full beauty of the rainforest on the Otway Fly tree top walk.

Discover high waterfalls in its narrow valleys, ranging from the impressive Triplet Falls to secluded falls over fern-fringed pools. Dramatic cliffs and secluded beaches can also be found along the shore. Visit wild Johanna Beach where towering cliffs frame the pristine sandy beach or the isolated and incredibly beautiful Blanket Bay. Another highlight along the coast is the Gable Lookout offering stunning views back to Moonlight Head.
