Walking & hiking

Pack a picnic lunch and follow a scenic track through a lush rainforest. Meet the shy wildlife of an outback desert or hike a challenging alpine trail to a secluded waterfall. Victoria's abundant walking tracks put you in the heart of the region's vast and diverse landscape. Many walking trails are in close proximity to Melbourne and most are within easy driving distance of the city.
