There's no shortage of natural wonders in Victoria; from pink salt lakes and redwood forests to sprawling mountain ranges, our state is replete with destinations worth travelling for.

Day Trip
Did someone say "Road Trip"? = Great Ocean Road, Loch Ard Gorge, Erskine Falls and Twelve Apostles
Loch Ard Gorge can be found along the Great Ocean Road, just a few minutes from the Twelve Apostles. Not-so-fun fact: the picturesque gorge features two cliff faces that are often referred to as the Tom and Eva Lookout, in honour of two teenagers who were the sole survivors of a tragic shipwreck along the coast in 1878.

On the way down to the gorge from Melbourne, you can stop off at Erskine Falls. Just a short drive from Lorne, this thunderous waterfall plunges a whopping 30 metres down into the gully below.

It's a hard life in the mountains but someone has to do it:
Located three hours east of the CBD, Mt Baw Baw Summit is a hiking trail located within the Great Dividing Range. The 3.5km trail kicks off in Baw Baw's Alpine Village and takes approximately five to eight hours to complete. Your reward? Sprawling views across the valleys of Thomson, Aberfeldy Rivers and Victorian Alps. How's the serenity?
