Colac Otway Caravan and Cabin Park is the doorstep to a number of spectacular day trips. Explore the phenomenal stretch of the world famous Great Ocean Road between Lorne and Apollo Bay. Stop off at the sensational viewing points on the way and visit Lake Elizabeth or Stephenson’s Falls on the way back.

Head west towards the Twelve Apostles, and visit the Cheese Factory and Chocolate Factory on the way there, as well as London Bridge, Loch Ard Gorge and The Grotto. At sunset, head to Red Rock Lookout, a dormant volcano that overlooks Lake Corangamite, Australia’s largest permanent inland salt water lake. The drive there is typical of the area, with farming land and rock fences, and the view upon arrival is stunning.

Spend the day in Otway National Park, which features tall forests, ferny gullies, waterfalls, lakes, rugged coastlines and sandy beaches, as well as the Otway Fly. The region abounds in opportunities for bushwalking, mountain bike riding, picnicking, swimming and horse-riding.
