Adjoining the popular tourist town of Beechworth, the Beechworth Historic Park has a rich goldmining past easily explored by foot.

The five kilometre Gorge scenic drive is also a pleasant walk, providing views of waterfalls and rugged countryside west of the town.

Other walking tracks connect Lake Sambell to Lake Kerferd, and a network of tracks link points of interest in the Gorge area including Fiddes Quarry, the precipice and cascades.

Aboriginal Traditional Owners

Parks Victoria acknowledges the Aboriginal Traditional Owners of Victoria - including its parks and reserves. Through their cultural traditions, the Dhudhuroa identify the Beechworth Historic Park as their Traditional Country.
