Driving the curvy Gorge Road
Gorge Road is a very scenic drive located on the scenic countryside near Beechworth, in the north-east of Victoria, Australia.
The road is paved (and gradually deteriorates), very narrow, with some steep sections. There's a number of places to stop and visit. The drive features large granite outcrops, native forest, rockpools, cascades and access to the historic powder magazine.
