Scenic Lookout — Attraction in Barwon South West

Local's POV here, so I may be a little biased (you have been warned). Also, this review is one I made of the 'Discovery Walk' way back in 2013, that I've adapted from another popular review site (you can guess what it is). You can very easily access the Discovery Walk from the small car park (maybe five parking bays in size) that overlooks Port Campbell. A very short walk on a well formed trail, make your way down a short series of steps and you're onto the northern/eastern end of the Discovery Walk. Then, start walking... enjoy the views - particularly east, along the coastline to the 12 Apostles. The views are spectacular - of course weather depending. And, if you get as far as the western end of the walk (a 2km jaunt along the trail) you'll meet up with what the locals call the 'Two Mile tear drop' car park. So called because it provides a limited amount of car parking for visitors to Two Mile bay (which is, in itself, an entire other world).

I used to walk the Discovery around 3 or 4 times each week, leaving from my business at that time, the Port Campbell Hostel. I'd access the walk from Port Campbell's beach. From the hostel, in Port Campbell, it's almost exactly a 5km return trip, taking me

Poorly signed- as in, not at all, look out is direct left, not path straight ahead. Otherwise you'll be trapped into more of a walk then you'd think from a very small road sign that simply says scenic lookout… Plus stairs down the straight ahead path decent view over the town More like the entrance to Port Campbell...

A few km leisure walk. This trail is accessible from Port Campbell via a bridge before taking some steps up to the trail, do not need to drive to car park near the trail, the bridge looks new and well maintained, overall scenic walk if you have some times in...
