    My honest review:

    The roads are unsealed and were a bit corrugated (this was 5+ years back) and the paths were mostly sand. It is definitely mountain bike territory, my missus and I walked for some of it.

    There are almost no registered vehicles which I found highly amusing - There’s no police and when they do try to come across on the ferry, people start calling their friends on the island to let them know to their pull cars off the road. It is very much ‘the wild west’ of Victoria.

    There are snakes fucking everywhere i cant stress it enough. We were there for 2 days and saw perhaps 8 snakes. Brown, copper, and tiger - and there is no hospital so you would need an air lift. I didn’t spot a copper head until it was about a meter or two away.

    Visit the Bayview Chicory Kilns and say gday to Lois she runs a little museum. The general store is cool, buy a post card.

    All in all it was a pleasant weekend until the koalas started mating (raping) each other. Their screams echo freshly in my mind to this very day.

    7/10 only because of the road quality.
