The Treetop Walk: A Suspended Adventure Above the Forest Floor
The treetop walk is the most popular experience at Otway Fly. 600 metres of steel walkway suspended above the forest floor. As you step onto the 25-metre-high elevated walkway, the forest opens up before you, with sweeping views and direct views into the canopy. For those looking for a flat walkway that’s easy to navigate, the treetop walk delivers, giving you access to parts of the forest that are off-limits to the general public. The walk takes you between ancient trees, with several viewing platforms to stop and take in the views. The air is thick with earth and plant scent, and the sounds of the forest creatures surround you. It’s a fully immersive experience, from tree to tree and into the heart of this ancient rainforest.
Otway Fly Zip Line Tour: For the Adventurous Traveller
For the adrenaline junkie, the Otway Fly Zip Line Tour is a must. This zipline eco-tour takes you soaring above the forest canopy, with zips and experiences along the way. A series of zips stretching over the treetops is an extreme rainforest experience that will get your heart racing. You’ll feel like you’re flying as you glide through the air, taking in the views of the forest and the coastline in the distance. As part of a Great Ocean Road day trip, whether you’re an adventure lover or just looking to add a bit of excitement to your day, the Otway Fly Zip Line Tour is a must-do.
The Tower: Elevation for the Brave
For those looking for even more adventure, the 45-metre-high Spiral Tower is the ultimate experience at Otway Fly. Above the canopy, you can climb to an elevation where the views are simply stunning. As you climb the tower, you’ll have 360-degree views of the forest, with the birds-eye view giving you a glimpse of the vastness of the Great Otway National Park.
And then there’s the top, where the brave can see for miles. You’ll feel like you’re on top of the world, looking down on the rainforest and the coastline—nature, physical activity, and views all in one.
