Otway Tree Top Walk and Fly

Despite it being rather chilly (11c) we headed out to the walk. This is a walk up through the tree tops in places. In places it is a long way up. You can also do a zip line (3hr tour) through the trees but you need to pre-book for it and we hadn't.So for us the walk was good and is only about 45mins to 1hr.

 They have a walk through some dense rainforest before the tree top walk. In it they have a pre-historic area with some fairly large models. Here is a couple fo them.

 Starting the walk.

 Once you've walked across the tree walk for a while you come across the lookout.  This is 45 Meters off the ground. This is awesome although a little daunting as it is quite narrow on the stairs.

Colac

Travelled down to Colac for an overnight stay. Mostly so we could do the Otway Tree Top walk but also jut to have a look around. On Saturday we went for a followed the volcanic drive around the lakes (Colac & Beeac) and then the different volcanic craters around them.

Lake Beeac now has water in it. Last time we drove around here for as far as you could see it was dry. Which in itself was interesting as it is a salt lake. Have a look at it now

We travelled up to the Red Rock lookouts (there are 2) that face east and west. They look east over Lake Colac and Beeac and west to Lake Corangamite which is a huge salt lake also. Looking west from Red Rock, this is Lake Corangamite with some volcanic craters in the foreground.

Guess who doing some of his best poses.

From there we travelled into the tiny town of Red Rock and saw this amazing tree. I always thought they manufactured, I didn't realise they grew on trees.
