Driving to Victoria's most isolated town, Mallacoota, relaxed and scenic drive

Come along for a relaxing trip in the outskirts of the Eastern Gippsland region, we'll veer off the Princess Highway and travel the length of Genoa-Mallacoota Road (route C617), to Mallacoota, via Gipsy Point and the lush Croajingolong National Park. The area was famously ravaged by bushfires in late 2019 and early 2020. We'll take a trip through the Mallacoota township and end at the scenic Bastion Point.
