Track Notes & Overview
Starting from the Bells Beach Carpark this walk follows sections five and six of the Surf Coast Walk. Shortly after leaving the carpark you will head inland a few hundred metres and about 3 kilometres down the track you will emerge at Point Addis (the end of section five). At this point you have the option to walk down to the beach and once you have had a snack you can continue moving along the sixth section of the walk which starts with a short beach walk before making you climb to the top of the cliffs. These trails are well marked and paved and just a few kilometres down the track, walking through bushland alongside native wildlife you will find yourself at the end of the hike in the Anglesea Township.
