The Great Ocean Walk INN-to-INN walking holiday allows you to walk from one accommodation to the next while you luggage is moved ahead for you.
This is a Self-guided trip. You walk without a guide using our marked maps and easy-to-follow Walk Notes. This means you can start any day of the year (subject to availability). You need a minimum of 2 people booking together.
We are offering 3 choices of duration for this trip:
1) 9 days (includes 8 nights accommodation and 7 days walking) - this is the entire track from Apollo Bay to the Twelve Apostles / Loch Ard Gorge.
2) Part A - 5 days (includes 4 nights accommodation and 3 days walking) - this is the first part of the track from Apollo Bay to Castle Cove.
3) Part B - 6 days (includes 5 nights accommodation and 4 days walking) - this is the second part of the track from Castle Cover to the Twelve Apostles / Loch Ard Gorge.
Whichever trip you choose we will arrange all transport to/from Apollo Bay (from where you can get a coach back to Melbourne).
The Great Ocean Walk Highlights walking holiday allows you to walk with a guide and pick out the main highlights of the route.
This is a guided trip. You need to form your own group of 2 or more people and then choose whatever starting date you want (subject to availability). Your group of 2 or more people will probably be the only ones on the holiday but it is possible that others may book on the same date - in this case you will walk as a small group. If you prefer to have the guide exclusively then please let us know.
The Highlights trip is a 6 day package including 5 nights accommodation and 4 days guided walking.
Whichever trip you choose we will arrange all transport to/from Apollo Bay (from where you can get a coach back to Melbourne).
We also offer the Great Ocean Walk as a group guided trip on set departure dates. This is a 7 day trip and includes transport from Melbourne.
We offer the entire track (as covered by the INN-to-INN walk above) but we stay in different accommodations. One of the highlights is a night staying in the lighthouse keepers cottages at Cape Otway.
We will travel by mini bus between the walks. Group sizes vary from around 10-15 people. There will be 2 guides on these trips so that we can offer easier/shorter and harder/longer options along the way.
