Adventure
sports are widely followed in Victoria, partly because the state offers such
varied terrain. As in
New South
Wales, the Great Dividing Range is the main
focus for waking, climbing, rafting and winter sports such as cross-country
skiing and ski touring. However, several other areas also have large tracts of
wilderness, including the Grampians, the Otways and the magnificent coastal
national parks of Wilsons Promontory and Croajingolong. And even where native
bush is absent, travelers can still find adventure: for example, Australia’s
top climbing area, Mount Arapiles, rises dramatically out of flat wheat country
near Horsham in the state’s west.
