The Great South West Walk - Part 1: Portland to Nelson (Victoria, Australia)

#greatsouthwestwalk #hiking #trekking The Great South West Walk is a 250km hike located near the Victoria / South Australia border. The trail starts at Portland, heads inland for its first half, then turns around at Nelson and loops back to Portland via the spectacular Victorian south coast. ... The usual time to complete this hike is 14 days. The trail is well marked and each section ends with a camping site that has a small shelter with a picnic table and benches, a pit toilet and a rain water tank. The water needs to be treated before drinking. Some sites also have fire pits. ... We started our walk mid September and finished at the end of September. It took us 12 days.
