Discover Colac, a town with a rich farming and forestry history located just two hours from Melbourne. Set on the shores of Colac Lake and on the doorstep of the Great Otway National Park, Colac is a lively regional centre close to some of Victoria's most-loved natural attractions.

Immerse yourself in the serenity of the Otway's with its towering trees and dense fern glades. Enjoy a bushwalk to cascading waterfalls and stunning beaches, or head to the calm waters and eerie landscapes of Lake Elizabeth in search of the elusive platypus at Forrest.

Stretch the legs on one of the local rail trails. Run, walk or cycle along the Old Beechy Rail Trail that runs through the Otway Ranges from Colac to Beech Forest or hit the Forrest Tiger Rail Trail for pastoral landscapes, temperate rainforest and historic sites. For something a little closer, take a stroll along the 1.2-kilometre track through Colac's Botanic Gardens.
For the mountain bikers, nearby Forrest boasts some of the finest mountain biking trails in the state.
Enjoy a little retail therapy while wandering the streets of Colac. Browse country gift shops and specialty stores, stock up at community markets and cool off in the beautiful botanic gardens.
Hit the road and sample the region's best fresh produce, wines, beers and gourmet treats along the Otways Harvest Trail. Stop into Warncoort, Birregurra, Forrest and Ferguson, or drive further to the southern coastal cliffs, beaches and mighty 12 Apostles.

Gorgeous Cottage - Perfect Location
Thanks Joanna for all your effort to create a beautiful, luxurious and period interior with a stunning garden to match!! We loved all the attention to detail, a garage for our classic car and the brilliant location - walking distance to everything, especially the scrumptious Babil restaurant! We'll be back!!

Everything you could possibly need
We had a brilliant week at Jacaranda Cottage preparing for a family wedding nearby. From the fantastic assistance from Jo, for whom nothing was too much trouble, through to having everything we could possibly need at our fingertips. It was a cold week in June and the cottage was beautifully warm and cosy - electric blankets were a welcome addition. The location is great…walking distance to shops, supermarkets and the Botanic Gardens. Would definitely recommend.
