Track
The Great South West Walk track, which notionally begins and ends at the Visitor Information Centre in Portland, traverses forest, river gorge, high cliff tops and bays. It was designed as a long distance walking track, with the option for short and day walks. It is accessed from roads in and near the towns of Portland, Heathmere, and Nelson. The walk's difficulty is rated as moderate, and consists of seventeen sections of varying lengths. The walk contains sixteen camp sites along the track; all supplied with fresh water, wood barbecues, cleared tent sites and bush toilets.
