Places to visit around Victoria
Just one thing to be noted that I personally find YHA as the best and cheapert place to stay if you are a back packer or do nto want to spend much on staying overnight or for couple of days. 1. Great Ocean Road, further than Geelong and a lot of tour companies conducts tours for these places. 2. Mecedon Ranges (If you like lakes, aggriculture, wineries etc.) 3. Yarra Vally 4. Mt.Buller, Mt.Bobo and Mt.Hotham (If you are into snow and ski, part of north east victoria)5. Gippsland and Phillip Island (Penguin prade is pretty famous from Phillip Island) 6. Grampians National Park (It took me about 3 and 1/2 hours to get there but it's a nice place to go to if you like bush walks and rock climbing on the way you would come accross wind farms and other historical places) 7. Dandenong Ranges, Puffing billy, Sky High, (take train from Belgrave for Puffing Billy I think. On the way to dandenong ranges try lunch at Miss Marples 'where mountain highway finishes' )
