Experience the diversity of East Gippsland as this well maintained rail trail weaves over 100km past undulating farmland, tall forests, creeks, rivers and flood plains. Cross the historic timber railway bridges and enjoys views of the Gippsland Lakes before arriving at Orbost and the Snowy River.

This art gallery has free entry and is located in a gorgeous historic building beside another must see historic Court House building. It is easy to find, at the eastern end of Bairnsdale near the post office and across from the Coles carpark. The entry area to the gallery has recently been renovated and stocks some great small gifts for sale from local artists. The gallery hosts a range of exhibitions that change regularly so there is always something interesting to see.

Lovely place to chill, take in extensive view over Mitchell river to ocean and try very good wines, with fun service. There on a still warm evening, sat out on balcony. A lot to like.

Reviewed By glenellis16 - Melbourne, Australia
Been stopping here for years to break the drive from Melbourne to Lakes/Orbost/Marlo. It’s changed a little over the years but still represents a great opportunity to stretch the legs and let the kids run around. Plenty of play equipment including the long yellow slide and flying fox. Shaded area for picnic lunch.
9. Mitchell river walk

Well laid out walk and an easy track with great views of the Mitchell River. It traverses parklands, narrow bush tracks and bridges. It is an easy walk - bridge to bridge is 5 kms and well worth doing.
