Cape Otway to Aire River Hike

Distance: 10 kilometres
Duration: 4 hours
Grade: Medium
Start: Cape Otway
Finish: Aire River

Explore the lightstation before you set out. The walk to Aire River carves its way through a wind sculpted landscape of sand dunes, coastal scrubland and calcified cliffs. Rainbow Falls and Station Beach are a 3-kilometre return journey. Rainbow Falls is spring-fed and trickles through algae to the rock platform below. Take the main track over Station Beach or the beach route to Aire River lookout.
