Overview

You’ll know the town, you may know the area, but this hidden walk will make you gaze around as you traverse a hidden canyon in the foothills of the Otways, be refreshed by cool waterfall mist and of course get that heart pumping with some of the uphill stuff. All in all a great day out, filled with company, scenery, fitness and our usual taste for some adventure. We’ll visit up to five waterfalls on this figure 8 walk and use both wide gravel roads and narrow twisty trails to bring you this solid day out. Enjoy lunch at a picnic table and in rain, hail or shine, this walk is a delightful forest exploration. You can always finish the day with an evening snack in Lorne or make a weekend and stay the night.

WHY CHOOSE
TAKE SHAPE ADVENTURES

FRIENDSHIP

Most of the people that come on our tours come by themselves. Our community is built on friendships that have been made on our trips, experiencing something life changing together, the shared memories and also goals to do more in the future! We encourage people not to be anxious about coming on these trips by yourself as we promise you will leave with some like minded friends and be really glad you made the decision to get out of your comfort zone and join in.

BELONG

Our community is our backbone. We have had so many people start with no hiking experience, basic fitness and not knowing anyone on our trips. These same people have gone on to do some incredible multi day hiking trips with us and their friends they have met in our community. Witnessing the development of their fitness, confidence, experience, friendships and happiness is why we do what we do. Come join us and let us help you get from the couch to the top of the mountain!

ADVENTURE

Experiences, not things. The moments that take your breath away. The feeling of accomplishment and the realisation that you are capable of so much more than what you thought. The views that blow your mind and the ticking off of bucket list items. We take all the hard work out of it for you. We organise the lot so you can just turn up and get the best of your experience without all the headaches of organising/logistics. We make it easy for you to do all the thing you want to do – you just need to turn up and be ready to jump into life!
