About this tour
Walk suspended 25–30 metres above the Otway rainforest floor along a 600-metre elevated boardwalk that winds through the canopy. You'll spot wildlife and plants from forest base to treetop level, and tackle the 47-metre spiral tower and a swaying cantilever platform above Young's Creek. The hour-long circuit suits all fitness levels and is fully wheelchair accessible.

What to expect
You'll start at ground level and gradually ascend onto the boardwalk, which stays suspended between 25 and 30 metres high as it snakes through the canopy. The spiral tower climb is the most dramatic moment—as you wind upward, the forest opens around you. The cantilever platform genuinely sways; it's designed for stability but the movement is real enough to feel the rainforest's rhythm beneath your feet. Wildlife appears in pockets—watch for native birds and small mammals. The walk flows steadily; allow time to pause and look down into the understory.
Good to know
The walk takes roughly an hour at an easy pace. Wear enclosed shoes for grip. Nearby public transport stops provide access. Service animals are permitted throughout. Bring water and sun protection even though the canopy offers shade. Photography is unrestricted.
