Cape Woolamai Beacon
Nature preserve
👍👍 Cave Woolomai on Philip Island is a picturesque location with a beautiful beach, hidden gems. It can be quite windy and cold, especially in March. The walk to the cave is long took us about 2, 3 hrs to complete, so it is important to wear comfortable and sturdy shoes. Unfortunately, the area is also...

Toorongo Falls Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Toorongo Falls is a beautiful nature spot! It's like a hidden gem in the forest. The waterfalls are stunning. The sound of water rushing is so peaceful. The walking path is well-marked, but can be a bit steep. Remember comfy shoes. The lush green surroundings are refreshing, and the air is pure. Don...

George Bass Coastal Walk
Nature preserve
👍👍 Possibly the most beautiful coastal walk ever. We did the full 16km … not for the faint of heart, the last few k’s were a real slog. It’s hilly at times, and there are sections where you’ll need to walk over very soft sand. We saw people attempting to take prams and electric scooters which is insane...

Yarran Dheran Nature Reserve

👍👍 Beautiful little gem hidden in the suburbs. Lots of walking paths with birds, ponds and a small stream. There are well kept toilets and drinking water available. There is also a visitor centre which was closed on the weekend I visited. It's quiet and you only hear cars if you're on one of the paths...

Two Bays Walking Track
Hiking area
👍 Gorgeous hike and as one Aussie man I passed said “sure was an easy walk, but a LONG f*%#ing one”. Very enjoyable walk/hike. Around 13-15k steps back and forth from each entrance. Quite a narrow path though so go when it’s not busy or you can’t pass slow walkers 😅

Griffiths Island Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Do the longer walk along the beach if your capable it’s not to hard but it was really rewarding. Lots of beautiful vistas and protected coves. Heartbreaking thing though was the amount of dead birds that I believe are being taken by foxes overnight, they were baiting when I was there
