Great Ocean Walk

Postby SueO1988 » Thu 07 Jan, 2016 11:32 pm

My husband and I and friends completed the Great Ocean Walk in September. We did it over 6 nights/7 days. Absolutely stunning and loved every part of it. Sadly since we completed there have been the devastating fires in parts of the Great Otway National Park. Hopefully the park will recover and this amazing walk can continue to be enjoyed by trekkers from all over the world. I have done a blog with information from our walk that I thought I would share for your enjoyment.

Great blog and pictures Sue. The best report I've seen on the GOW for sure.

Sue, as Neil says, terrific blog and pictures. Really useful for people who are planning to do the GOW. I'll be interested to hear how badly the bushfires have affected the walk surrounds. Thanks for sharing!

I'm happy to be corrected but I don't think the fires from Xmas day would affect any part of the GOW.
Sometimes, I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.
