Melbourne: The Great Ocean Road Drive 2014

I visited the Great Ocean Road last year and really enjoyed the ocean spray that threatened to induce hyperthermia while I was at the shoreline.
I went back again this year and the beauty of the ocean never fails to amaze me.

I stopped by one of the most popular waterfalls along the way, The Erskine Falls.

 

The Erskine Falls

It was a short walk from the car park to the falls.
By short walk I mean if you decide to make your way through the long grass and walk on the road for a bit, it will be a short walk.

If you decide to ‘follow the rules’ and walk on the actual path as indicated on the map, well it will test your fitness level and I was not very fit…

Part of the path to the Erskine Waterfall

After the scenic walk, in which you will either be cursing Mother Nature or swearing at the wind, you will come to a cross-road.
The left one will take you to the top of the waterfalls while the right will bring you right to the base of it.

I was too tired to make it to the top so I stayed at the base of the falls.
The air was really fresh this deep in the forest and it made the trek worth it.
