Great Ocean RoadTour Code: GORWest of the city of Melbourne a vast volcanic plain of golden grasses stretches into the distance broken by isolated forested ranges and bounded by miles of rocky cliffs pounded by the Southern Ocean. The famous Great Ocean Road hugs this coastline providing spectacular views of the rugged coastal scenery.Wildlife abounds throughout this region. The plains contain the biggest permanent lakes in Australia contained in the huge craters of extinct volcanoes and home to abundant birdlife. Nearby forested hills are home to koalas and kangaroos and the grasslands of the plains are the richest wool growing area on earth.
