It’s a good job that this Otways attraction, a detour from the Great Ocean Road, has more to offer, therefore.

Otway Fly Treetop Adventures: Treetop Walk

The main experience without the ziplines is the treetop walk, which has a series of elevated walkways through the forest canopy. The biggest of these walkways is 600 metres long and 25 metres above the ground.

The whole walk is around 1.9km long and takes about an hour to complete.

There’s also a cantilevered platform stretching out high above Youngs Creek, plus a 47 metre-high spiral tower that rises above the treetops.
