The only sounds you may hear are birdsong and the scurrying footsteps of the region’s rich wildlife including small native mammals such as bush rats and marsupial mice. Whilst honey‐eaters, eastern spinebills and white‐throated tree‐creepers are some of the birds that accompany the superb lyrebird in this sheltered habitat.
The park is also home to more than 40 species of native orchids and plenty of sleepy koalas.

The Tarra Bulga National Park/
Tarra Valley Rainforest Walk -
32 Minutes Away
It’s lush. It’s green. It’s one of the most heart-stirring places you can find and quite unlike any other place in Victoria.
This little pocket of rainforest (the cool temperate kind) is one of the last remaining in the state. In this secret land, it’s as if you’ve unknowingly taken the “Drink Me” potion: walking trails are dwarfed by giant ferns and towering mountain ash trees. Fronds of ancient myrtle beech stretch from either side of the path creating an emerald canopy pierced by thin shafts of sunlight.
Breathe in the fresh, sweet smell of the chocolatey soil underfoot, to the soundtrack of trickling streams and the call of a distant lyrebird.
Walhalla and the Goldfields Railway -
44 Minutes Away
There’s nowhere else in the world quite like the curious village of Walhalla.
Set in a deep valley and surrounded by plunging hills, this picture-perfect town is the place time forgot. Lovingly preserved from its once-upon-a-time gold mining era, the drive in on dirt roads is no accident - it’s a respectful nod to its heritage and gives a delightful oldsy feel.
Feed your wanderlust with Insta-ready buildings and streetscapes, ablaze with a heady mix of colours in autumn - crimson, burnt orange and golden peach.
Surrounded by forest and national park, it’s no surprise the town is a stepping off point for camping, fishing and 4x4 enthusiasts. The Thomson River also offers scenic opportunities for kayaking and rafting with some low grade rapids.
There’s undoubtedly something in the air here - it’s a stockpile of zen and a place that commands your everyday stresses are left at the gate.
