Our trip through Victoria start in the capital city Melbourne. This city has a real metropolitian feel about it, with historical and futuristic buildings. In Ballarat everything reminds us of the goldfever that lasted only thirty years, but changed this town and its looks forever. In Geelong,the second city of Victoria we can see in the former seaport beautiful old buildings and woolwarehouses. Via the Great Ocean Road we visit Apollo Bay and Port Campbell, originaly fishing villages but grown in to real seaside resorts. We leave the coast and go first to the Grampions National Park where previously several Aboriginal-tribes used to live. Our next visit is the Little Desert National Park.After this we explore some places along the Murray River.In Bendigo, the city which had the most profitable gold findings, we visited the Golden Dragon Museum. Also nearby in the historical town of Beechworth did they find a lot of gold, so we tried to do some gold-panning in the river. At Lakes Entrance we reach the coast and go towards Wilsons Promontory National Park and the Dandenong Ranges. Along the numerous vineyards in the Yarra Valley we reach finally Lake Eildon, a watersport El Dorado in the Great Dividing Range.
