Melbourne National Parks

If you love national parks, hiring a campervan in Melbourne gives you a great starting point to explore Victoria's incredible natural treasures.

You can find the Yarra Ranges National Park about two hours from Melbourne. It's a popular tourist spot with biking, great walks, and phenomenal scenery. The Black Spur Drive is one of Australia's most beautiful routes — it's well worth adding to your campervan or motorhome itinerary.

Grampians National Park is world-famous. The spectacular sandstone peaks, beautiful indigenous rock art, and the incredible Pinnacle walk are just a few of the highlights that keep visitors coming back year after year.

If you're taking your campervan or motorhome hire on the Great Ocean Road, you can visit the Great Otway National Park. The sites on offer are incredible: rainforests, waterfalls, and even koalas.

Melbourne Coastline, Lakes, and Rivers

Melbourne has a beautiful coastline on either side of the city. Campervan and motorhome hire allows you to experience some incredible sights and beaches. For example, you can take the coastal road to Sydney for around 12 hours straight.

Melbourne has many great lakes you can access with a campervan or motorhome hire. Lake Neangar, to the north of Melbourne, is an absolute treat. It's very picturesque, great for picnics and walks, and has playgrounds for kids.

East of Neangar, you can find Lake Nagambie. It's an incredibly beautiful and tranquil place with fantastic fishing. However, if you want something more action-packed, you can discover water skiing, canoeing, and a range of other water activities.

Melbourne also has a lot of rivers and was built on one of them, the Yarra River. If you drive out in your campervan or motorhome, you can access some great activities, such as boat cruises, rowing, and kayaking. There are also some incredible trails along the river banks, which you can do on foot or a bike.

The Murray River is Australia's longest. It forms the border between Victoria and New South Wales. Fishing, canoeing, and riverboat tours are some of the highlights. There are also six golf courses along the river if you've got a set of clubs in your campervan.
