Take a walk through the scenic Breakneck Gorge, a stunning natural feature alongside the Hepburn-Newstead Road. You can reach Breakneck Gorge directly from the roadside or via a walk from
The Blowhole, a historical gold diversion tunnel on Sailors Creek which now forms a beautiful waterfall and swimming hole!
How to get to Breakneck Gorge
Breakneck Gorge is visible from the car as you drive over the bridge and accessible on foot via the Dry Diggings Track, from the signposted point along Hepburn-Newstead Road. The walking track through Breakneck Gorge to
The Blowhole nearby is 3 km (1 hour).
Additional notes
The track is steep and uneven in parts, but is clear and well signposted. Watch out for snakes during summer, and if you are entering Breakneck Gorge from Hepburn-Newstead Road be wary of fast oncoming traffic.
