Or Journey to Phillip Island and catch a glimpse of the unique penguin parade. | |
| Central Gippsland provides the perfect environment and offers many wonderful facilities. An irrigation and timber district, the area is rich in Arts, Crafts and History with many attractions and special events for you to enjoy. Many wineries are established in the region, with each offering a delightful variety of world class wines. It is the gateway to the Gippsland Lakes and wetlands system and within easy reach to the wonderful 90 mile beach, with it's endless unbroken sands as far as the eye can see. The area is ideal for bird watching, throughout the wetlands region, or fishing, with good catches in the Lakes System, or on many of the rivers and streams that feed the system. The river Avon, with it's broad gravelled bed, (regarded highly by rock hounds for its gem stones) is a great place to fossick and explore. To the north of Heyfield and beyond the popular Lake Glenmaggie, the Macalister River Valley road to Licola, twists beside green river pastures to the foot of the Alps. A popular tourist road providing some of the most picturesque foothill scenery along the great dividing range. | |

| While in Gippsland, why not venture into the Mountain Rivers Region. A place where you can relax with nature while you explore the forests, or fossick through gold mining areas and possibly strike it rich. Either way Erica, Rawson and Walhalla, three diverse tourist townships in the Shire of Baw Baw, will provide all the richness that you may want. Scenically beautiful Erica, Modern and challenging Rawson, Historically sleepy Walhalla. All combine to give tourists a diverse choice of activities while holidaying in the area during all seasons. | |
