Today, you'll continue on your Great Ocean Road drive to the Otway National Park and turn off to the Otway Fly Tree Top Walk which takes about one hour. Reach for the sky along the treetop canopy walkway –the longest and tallest of its type in the world– or up the adrenaline with a zip-line tour. Then, take a helicopter ride over the 12 Apostles, which includes flying over Loch Ard Gorge, along the majestic coast to London Bridge.
