Whether you’re a dedicated nature lover or simply looking for a memorable outdoor experience near Melbourne, this tour lets you connect with the region’s landscapes and animals in an immersive way.

The Walk with Wildlife Tour

Your experience begins with a friendly conservationist guide who will lead you along a 1.4km path thoughtfully designed for visitors of all ages and abilities. As you journey through tranquil gullies filled with ferns and towering eucalypt woodlands, keep your eyes open for local wildlife such as koalas resting in treetops, lively bandicoots and the elusive potoroo. Along the trail, your guide will share stories and insights about these animals’ behaviors and the critical role they play in the Otway ecosystem.

The terrain is level and accessible, ensuring a comfortable adventure for families, seniors and guests with mobility needs. With every step, you’ll find yourself surrounded by serene natural scenery, from lush greenery to panoramic ocean views, making this not just a wildlife outing but a truly scenic bushwalk.

The Dusk Discovery Tour

For those who enjoy nature’s twilight hours, the Dusk Discovery Tour offers a special blend of wildlife observation and relaxation as day transitions to night. This extended 90-minute tour follows the same gentle path but is timed to catch Australia’s nocturnal animals as they begin their evening activities. Guided by a knowledgeable expert, you’ll encounter animals like pademelons and observe as they emerge to forage. Your journey is complemented by a delicious mezze platter and your choice of a glass of beer or wine, enhancing the unique experience of dining surrounded by nature.

Wildlife Observation and Learning

Throughout your guided walk, you’ll engage with a range of animals that call the Otways home. Expect to see and sometimes hear the sounds of local mammals and birds, each contributing to the vivid tapestry of the region’s ecosystem. Your guide’s expertise means you’ll gain a deeper understanding of native Australian flora and fauna, from their habits and habitats to conservation efforts that support their survival.
