澳洲的活火山早已不复存在,但是它们留下的遗迹为我们提供了与海边截然不同的景致。从海岸线折返一路向北,探索雄伟壮观的火山地貌,这里将是一片广袤无垠的新天地。
如果您的下一站是淘金镇所在的巴拉瑞特 (Ballarat),那么沿途等待您的,将是鬼斧神工的火山岩地质奇观。建议您在特兰 (Terang)、诺拉特 (Noorat) 或 斯基普顿 (Skipton) 等小镇周边探索,欣赏“风吹草低见牛羊”的澳州田园风光。
一马平川的牧场和油菜花田之中,湛蓝的火山湖点缀于其间,有如斑斓的织绵。这里光污染为零,澄澈透明的空气让银河一览无余,极致震撼,终身难忘!
Baa-ewe-tiful rainbows starting to fill our skies 🌈

Lake Bullen Merri's clover like shape is a legacy of its volcanic past; the lake was formed from the remains of three adjoining craters.

#redrockregionaltheatreandgallery was founded in 2011 by Andrew and Mary Beale, who generously handed over the use of the site to the community for arts and cultural enrichment and as a memorial to their daughter Carolyn. The former church, built in 1903, hosts exhibitions in the former hall and performances in the Carolyn Theatre.
Open during advertised events or via appointment.

🐝 B E E / A M A Z E D ⛅️ … this dreamy vista … the volcanic plains in all their majesty … foggy clouds skimming the rim of the crater lake of Bullen Merri … an ephemeral glimpse at sunrise before the clouds uplifted … what a delight … just like the honey the bees make as they buzz and hum across this horizon … visiting local flowers to produce authentically local honey … pure, raw, nothing but honey, with a dash of beeswax and a dusting of pollen on top … delicious, limited-edition, small-batch decadence … new deliveries buzzing into local stockists for wintry days … 💛 🍯

The Courthouse Camperdown was erected in 1886 in the Medieval Gothic Revival style replacing an earlier structure constructed in 1858. It ceased being a court house in 1990 and now operates as a Visitor Information Centre and offers a fabulous range of locally made goods.

Take the drive down Byaduk’s Old Crusher Road and be met with the Lava Blisters, a phenomenon to exist in one of only three locations across the world; something that makes this region just that little bit more special to the locals that love it and the visitors who visit it

Immerse yourself in nature with a sprinkle of Irish charm in the Volcanic Lakes & Plains… 🍀
Located in the historic Irish township of Koroit you’ll be sure to experience Irish hospitality at its most charming. The Koroit-Tower Hill Caravan Park is only a five-minute walk to the Koroit town centre and is located at the beautiful and historic Botanic Gardens.
The park is ideally placed right on the doorstep of the Tower Hill State Game Reserve, an inactive volcano where you can enjoy a picnic or walk around the crater to see its wildlife or to study its geology and rich indigenous cultural history.
