Great Ocean Walk

Reviewed By 970bevw - Cairns, Australia

Our group of 9 friends did the self-guided 6-day Great Ocean Walk from Apollo Bay. We very sensibly used Hike2camp to provide all our needs, carry all our belongings and set up our tents in each overnight camp. We found Hike2camp run a very professional and friendly service. They provided our breakfast for us to cook or organise ourselves and a packed lunch with plenty of snacks for each day’s hiking. When we reached each day’s camp, our tents were set up with our gear in each, and we had our one-pot dinners ready for heating on the supplied gas stoves. Hike2camp take on all of the hard work and logistics, leaving hikers with the simple pleasures of just hiking during the day and enjoying the company of the other hikers at each camp site at night. I highly recommend using Hike2camp, owned and operated by young local people, who we found provided value for money.

Mallacoota Coastal Walks

Reviewed By KerryR290 - Indented Head, Australia

The area is slowly starting to green up after the bushfires, it is as beautiful as ever. A lot of work has gone into building walkways along the coast line in town making for many parts an easy walk. It really is a very lovely area to walk and explore

Reviewed By RobSwindon69 - Crewkerne, United Kingdom

We had a very enjoyable and scenic drive from Apollo Bay though some amazing countryside and forest to reach the site which added to the experience. Enjoyed a couple of coffees on arrival served by very friendly staff and then spent about an hour and 20 minutes following the self guided walk though some spectacular rainforest. The climb to the highest point was exhilarating and great fun. Would have loved to do the guided zip wire tour and will definitely return to do this next year. ????
