A network of short walks exploring the stunning coastal formations around Loch Ard Gorge on the Great Ocean Road. Named after the clipper ship that was wrecked here in 1878 the gorge features towering limestone arches, blow holes, and a sheltered sandy cove. Multiple viewing platforms reveal different perspectives of this dramatic coastline. The Thunder Cave and Island Archway are highlights not to be missed.
Know before you go
Stay behind safety barriers near cliff edges. Rogue waves are dangerous at beach level. Multiple car parks serve different sections of the walk. Allow 1-2 hours for all lookouts.
