LATEST ATTRACTION: LIVE WIRE PARK

LIVE WIRE PARK, LORNE

Just two hours drive from Melbourne in Lorne, is Australia's newest adventure attraction - Live Wire Park. Home of Australia's 'most extreme' Zip Line (the 525 metre long Shockwave Zip Coaster - one of just 4 world wide) plus over 80 high ropes activity obstacles that include, a suspended bridge. Canopy walk, a tarzan swing and even a nerve testing 15m bungee jump.

This is something that we just had to check out! After a quick coffee stop in Lorne, it was only 2 minutes before we arrived at the entrance to the park which is located near the start of the picturesque Erksine Falls Road.
