Cities & Places - APOLLO BAY - ANGLESEA (Victoria)


Between Port Campbell and Apollo Bay we are passing through the Otway National Park, part of the Otway Range. The landscape along the coast is changing. The orange, yellow and red colors from the rocks are now replaced by the green of the trees.

After Apollo Bay, Lorne is an opportunity to stop. Take the time for a walk in the forest with the Erskine Falls as an objective.

The Erskine Falls falling from 30 m. high, are very pretty. There is car park at 50 m. from the falls, but most interesting is to enjoy the 10 kms. long walk track, along the Erskine River Valley.

Back on the road, we arrive to Anglesea, a small town with a well-known golf course for the amateurs, but not only for them. This golf course is open to the public and has a particularity. Kangaroos are leaving there and can be seen and approached on the course.

It is also an opportunity for me to present you this shot I am calling ‘The Kangaroo on a skateboard’, guess why?

Geelong is the place to leave the coast for a while. Taking the Midland Hwy. we are driving in direction of Ballarat, a name often associated to Sovereign Hill.
