The Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s most iconic routes, stretching along Victoria’s rugged southern coastline. This point-to-point traverse follows the entire length of the Great Ocean Road, beginning in Torquay and finishing near Allansford, passing through world-famous landmarks such as the Twelve Apostles, Cape Otway, and Apollo Bay. Expect sweeping ocean views, dramatic limestone cliffs, lush rainforest segments and charming coastal towns.
The route is primarily sealed road with undulating elevation, offering a mix of challenging climbs and fast runnable sections. Weather can be unpredictable, with strong coastal winds and variable temperatures. Water and resupply points are available in towns along the route, but planning is essential for remote stretches.
Highlights:
- Twelve Apostles and Shipwreck Coast
- Cape Otway Lighthouse and Great Otway National Park
- Surf Coast beaches and iconic viewpoints
Notes: This is a road-based FKT with significant exposure to traffic; safety planning and support crew recommended.
