Visit The Wilsons Promontory National Park
Back on the mainland after traveling to Tasmania, we have visited a natural wonder. The Wilsons Promontory National Park is located three hours drive south east of Melbourne. This vast peninsula is the southernmost part of Australia. The "Prom", as locals call it (not to be confused with La Prom' in Nice), is one of Victoria's most-loved places. Granite cliffs, forests and white sandy beaches: the scenery is magnificent. Hiking is the main activity of the park. Tidal River is the only camping ground in the park. It is also where you can find a grocery store and a take-away restaurant. It does not matter if you spend just a day or a few of them, pay close attention to the wildlife as the Prom is home to many native animals. During our visit, we met several wombats, a first since the beginning of iPhoneography Oz project!
