Victoria packs more variety into a smaller space than almost anywhere else in Australia. The state is anchored by Melbourne — one of the world’s most liveable cities, known for its laneways, coffee culture, and food scene that rivals anywhere in the country. But Victoria travel extends well beyond the city limits.
The Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s most iconic drives, hugging the dramatic southern coastline past the Twelve Apostles and through charming seaside towns. Head inland and the Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula offer world-class wineries within an hour of the CBD. The Grampians deliver rugged hiking and Aboriginal rock art, while the Victorian Alps are the go-to for skiing in winter.
Whether it’s a Melbourne city break or a week-long road trip through regional Victoria, this Victoria travel guide covers all the best places to visit, things to do, and tips for making the most of the state.
