Lookouts
One of the best places marvel at the beauty of nature is from a lookout. If you're up for a challenging hike, then you can take in incredible landscape views from the top of mountain peaks. For those who prefer a relaxing drive, lookouts make fantastic pit stops for your road trip along Victoria's beaches and coasts.

Popular lookouts:
London Bridge

Sunrises and sunsets
Nothing elevates an incredible view more than a sky streaked with oranges, pinks and yellows. For the early birds, start your day in nature with a sunrise. Or sleep in and finish a day of hiking, picnicking or exploring by watching the sun go down. Can’t decide? Camping is a great way to witness both!

Stargazing
Looking to escape the city and get into nature? The summer sky has some of the brightest stars and constellations, so it’s the perfect time to try stargazing. You don’t need to travel far to take in the breathtaking views, just pick somewhere away from bright lights! Or travel to remote parks of Victoria and you’ll find the night sky shining bright, glittering with stars.
