Visit Victoria's second largest city

A bustling waterfront precinct en route to Lorne and the Great Ocean Road, Geelong is a must-add city to your Victorian road trip itinerary. A swift one-hour drive from Melbourne, the affectionately dubbed 'G-Town' is buzzing with boutique bars, cosy cafes and contemporary art galleries. When you're not sipping on coffee, you can visit the Geelong Botanic Gardens, cycle along the Bellarine Rail Trail or zipline through the Otway Ranges.
