Victoria Hiking

Hiking in Victoria is a great idea at any time of the year. The wildflowers are at their best between July and November, but if you're hiking outside of these months there will be plenty of other natural distractions.

While Victoria is a small state compared to Queensland and Western Australia, its hiking trails are some of the interesting, with rugged cliffs, mountains, creeks, waterfalls and lush valleys to delight all fitness levels. There are even wineries and olive farms to satiate your thirst and hunger along the way.

The Grampians, Great Ocean Road, Mornington Peninsula and Wilson's Promontory are just some of the big name hiking trails in Victoria. By joining one of the many Victorian hiking tours on offer, or setting out for a self-guided walk, you'll be introduced to the flora and fauna of Australia. From different vantage points overlooking the coastline, you'll see sea birds, and even seals and whales if visiting at the right season. Kangaroos, koalas, emus and an abundance of bird life are also characteristic of these areas.

If you are looking for some experienced and passionate hikers to join for a walk, there are a number of hiking clubs in Melbourne that organise regular walks of differing levels. Joining a club is a great way to meet locals and learn from their experience and understanding of hiking near Melbourne and the corner reaches of the state. Buses can be organised to deliver walkers from Melbourne city to the hiking destination of choice.
