This is a rain or shine event. Please carry takeaway lunch, water, and snacks. We will make a stop on the way for lunch.
Tentative list of locations we will be visiting:
- Mount Oberon delivers some of the most breathtaking views in Victoria. The hike to its summit rewards you with a sweeping 360-degree panorama of Wilsons Promontory, overlooking Tidal River. From up top, you’ll see untouched coastline, glittering offshore islands, lush green gullies, and towering mountain ranges. The return hike is 6.8 km and takes about two hours. Grade: Level 3
- Squeaky Beach - The famous white sand of Squeaky Beach is so named because of the noise it makes when you stroll along it.
- Tidal River
- Prom Wildlife Walk - Starting at the Wildlife Viewing Area, the Prom Wildlife Walk meanders through open grasslands where you can spot kangaroos, wombats, wallabies, and emus. It’s a flat, Grade 2 loop track, 2.3 km long, taking about 45 minutes to complete.
