Lakes Coast Visitor Guide

PAGE 20 | LAKES COAST VISITOR GUIDE FOSTER Wilsons Promontory National Park (or simply ‘The Prom’) is one of Victoria’s most loved natural escapes. Located at the southernmost tip of mainland Australia, it’s known for its striking granite mountains, expansive beaches, lush rainforest and rugged coastline. Protected since 1898, much of the Prom’s natural beauty has remained untouched, offering visitors a rare chance to experience nature as it was intended. Spanning more than 505 square kilometres, the park is home to diverse landscapes, coastal views and iconic walking tracks that draw visitors year-round. Walk & Explore From short scenic walks to multi-day hikes, there’s something for every kind of explorer. Tidal River acts as a central hub, with many of the Prom’s most popular tracks beginning here. A standout is the walk to Mount Oberon, where you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views across Bass Strait and the Prom’s dramatic offshore islands. Be Prepared Conditions at the Prom can change quickly, so it’s important to come prepared. Comfortable walking shoes, layers, water, sunscreen and snacks are essential. For longer hikes, always check conditions before you go and let someone know your plans.
