Baxters Beach and Wetlands Circuit | Easy-Medium, 14km

Starting at the car park at the end of Lower Powlett Rd on the outskirts of Wonthaggi, we head along the coast via Baxter's Beach to Cutler's Beach through the Yallock-Bullock Marine and Coastal Park.

We then leave the coast and head inland through the heathlands with coastal tea tree and wattles to visit Baxter Wetlands, known for its bird watching. Then back to the cars next to the Wonthaggi Wind Farm.

100m rise and 100m fall.
