Werribee Gorge Western Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you have one of the best views on the Rim Walk, which is really saying something since there are so many great views along the track.

Werribee Gorge Circuit Walk

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The full Circuit Walk takes you on a 10 kilometre loop around Werribee Gorge State Park, the traditional home of the Wadawurrung and Wurundjeri Peoples.

Along the way you'll find picnic areas, river access, and many viewpoints some directly on the track and others requiring a short detour. While you can walk the circuit in either direction, I recommend anti-clockwise and be aware that some minor scrambling is required and there is a short (50 metres) cable assisted section along a rock face.

Needles Beach

Highlight • Beach

If you're walking in the recommended anti-clockwise direction then you've done most of the hard bits of the circuit by now, making this a perfect place to stop for a rest. You can have your lunch, go for a swim, or just enjoy the views before continuing on your way.
