**Trip Overview**
The Great South West Walk (GSWW) is a 262km walking trail located in the beautiful south west corner of Victoria, Australia.
This three day walk will be along the Glenelg River Gorge section of the Great South West Walk. I found this section to be one of the highlights when I did the GSWW so I’m keen to walk it again.
The costs for the trip will include our campsites, a shuttle service to/from the walk and car parking where the shuttle service originates.
**Camping**
We will camp for two nights at two separate campsites along the GSWW.
