A coastal walk to the region's first settlement.

Wander through quiet coastal vegetation from Port Albert to the site of the region’s first (but not legally recognised) settlement, now appropriately known as ‘The Old Port’.

The 11km return walk showcases coastal vegetation and provides an insight into Port Albert’s early history.

A short detour from the walking track leads to a plaque commemorating Angus McMillan, an early explorer.
