Victorian walks? What about more spectacular walks in other states?
Are these walks near Melbourne? Are there other underrated walks near Melbourne?
These walks are underrated because none of us have ever heard about them. I lived near the Winton area and never heard of this walk!
I lived in Victoria for 60 years and still visit frequently. I also travelled extensively throughout Victoria whilst living there. However, I have never heard of any of these walks. I visited the Melbourne Botanic Gardens on a number of occasions, but have never heard of them being referred to as the Australian Botanic Gardens, so don't think they are what you are referring to. The Melbourne Botanic Gardens are definitely world class for anyone who wishes to visit them. Perhaps these walks should be advertised more, although you don't want them to be swamped by visitors and ruined, as happens to many beautiful places.
I have never heard about this walk. Would they be easy or challenging for mature age people
I think more advertising them is needed as I have never heard of any of them. Plus they sound very interesting, even outstanding!
No idea.....have walked Budji Bim.......very interesting nbut poorly maintained!
I was raised and lived in Victoria for over 30 years. I remember going to the Botanic Gardens when I was little but do not remember much. The other areas I have not heard of and I travelled all over Victoria.
I don't live in Victoria. You could say this about other areas in Australia too. However, I think tourists numbers should be capped as I do wonder what damage they do to the natural environment.
I live in NSW so I have no idea.
The only one I've ever heard about is the Botanic Gardens. Maybe that's the problem?
