"Gorgeous countryside and old-fashioned towns" State of Victoria by XenoHumph


State of Victoria Travel Guide: 7,208 reviews and 14,137 photos

The state of Victoria is beautiful, with amazing flora and fauna. With blessingly hardly any freeways, the countryside is nonetheless easily accessible through simple highways at an easy relaxing pace. The locals are extremely nice and yearn to make you discover their region.

If I ever get time I will build tips on the highlights of my trip:
The great ocean road: a coast of breathtaking beauty along the Bass Straight and the Southern Ocean
The Camperdown area: beautiful farmland with volcanic landscape
The Grampians: splendid mountainous region protected by a national park
Phillips Island: pretty island South of Melbourne, a little too commercialized for my taste but still worth a visit
Melbourne: wonderful city, a great blend of old and new architecture and a relaxed atmosphere

The State of Victoria is located in the Southeastern part of Australia, along Bass straight (facing Tasmania) and the Southern ocean.

    What an absolute stunning picture of the Grampians! Have been there, too, but mine are not half as good ;-) I hope you can find some time to build the pages in the future :-)
