Anything is possible in East Gippsland. Fish a mountain stream or bait up on a lakeside jetty. Steer your boat across pristine waters of the lakes or water-ski behind it. The watersports, hiking, biking, snow skiing, flying or caving will keep you entertained for days. Ride a horse across the High Country or watch horses in Campdrafts or Rodeos. No other region of Victoria can offer such great coastal and mountain pursuits.
Escape here and you can choose to do as little or as much as you like. Settle in first and then discover the multitude of activities on offer. Visitor Information Centres and Parks Victoria have all the information you need. Choosing what to do might be the toughest decision you have to make on this holiday. But you can always come back again if you don’t get everything done on the list. Paradise will still be here.
