Grand Victoria Loop
Loop around Victoria, covering the coast, mountains, goldfields, high country, and Wilsons Promontory in one go.
Head west from Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road, turn north to the Grampians, cross the Goldfields to the High Country, and then cross the Great Alpine Road down to Gippsland, returning to the city via Wilsons Promontory and Phillip Island. Spend one or two nights at each stop. Although it requires frequent hotel changes, it offers a vast span of landscapes, making it perfect for self-drive travelers with plenty of time. The Mornington Peninsula and Mount Buller are excluded from this route.
Snow chains are required on the Mount Hotham section in winter; watch out for bushfires and park closures in summer.
