GET YOUR THRILLS ON, GREAT OCEAN ROAD DRIVING MUSTANG GT
Great Ocean Road Drive
Driving the Great Ocean Road is an exhilarating experience that offers not only safety but also breathtaking views if road signs are followed diligently. The road is lined with numerous vehicular turnouts that provide stunning vistas of the ocean, making it a perfect spot for taking in the beauty of the coast.
While any vehicle can traverse the Great Ocean Road, it is recommended to avoid towing a trailer or caravan to fully enjoy the drive. Although the road features twists and turns in some sections, it is still permissible to tow a caravan, providing an added level of flexibility for travelers.
The drive may be cut short if desired.
The drive from Lorne to Deans Marsh or Skenes Creek through the Otways Forest offers a picturesque journey through lush greenery and towering tree ferns. The option to cut the drive short provides flexibility for travelers looking to save time on their journey back to Melbourne or Geelong. By choosing the shorter route, you can still experience the beauty of the Otways region without committing to a longer drive. The sealed roads ensure a smooth and comfortable drive, allowing you to relax and enjoy the scenic views along the way. As you pass through the forested landscapes, you'll be surrounded by the tranquility of nature, with the fresh scent of damp forest air adding to the immersive experience. Whether you opt for the Lorne to Deans Marsh route or the Skenes Creek to Forest drive, both paths promise a great way to experience the Great Ocean Road. This before turning off to experience the serene and refreshing drive through the Otways, offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Personally, I had the pleasure of driving a Mustang GT on a day road trip spanning 615 km from the Wimmera, not once but twice within 12 months. Making a pitstop in Lorne to indulge in a delicious serving of fish and chips added a delightful touch to the journey, making it a memorable experience that is worth reliving!
Lorne is a seaside town on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria. With a resident population greater than one thousand. A popular holiday spot for Victorian's and the wealthy with their lavish holiday homes.
Apollo Bay is a coastal Great Ocean Road town in Victoria. The retail street overlooks a long beach frontage opposite. The town appears more relaxed than Lorne.
As of February 2021, roadworks Apollo Bay to Lorne are completed. In general, Great Ocean Road surface maintenance has remained good into 2024.
