1885 Grand Ridge RdThis is a delightful, easy-grade 5km return walk. Petersons Lookout is perched high above the Tyers River within the Tyers Gorge. Wonderful views - particularly at sunset. Peregrine falcons are known to nest near the lookout platforms and wildflowers feature year round. Some of the park was logged around 60 years ago as evidenced by an old timber mill site near the commencement of the walk.
This walk is closed annually from 1 July to 15 December for fauna protection.

Gippsland’s Grand Ridge Road is one of the great tourist drives of Victoria. For 132km it snakes its way along the ridge of the Strzelecki Ranges, providing striking views across the emerald-green farmlands to the Latrobe Valley in the north and Bass Strait in the south. Mirboo North (10 mins drive from the cottage) is about halfway along the Grand Ridge Rd and provides a great entry point to travel in either direction along the road - towards Morwell one way, or Leongatha and Korumburra in the other.
The Grand Ridge Road spans 132km along the ridge of the Strzelecki Ranges. 50% of the roads surface is bitumen, 50% is gravel. The road is regularly maintained but care should be taken, especially during winter months when tree debris may fall on roads and surfaces can slippery or corrugated. The road runs through a high rainfall area and is often wet, slippery and foggy. On a very rare occasion you could also experience snow.
The Road is beautiful but winding. The whole road take approximately 5-6 hours to complete.
