  • 950.png

The Branxholme Rest Area is an ideal rest area, with excellent shady areas on the highway. The shady parking bay on the highway has been developed as a commemorative area for soldiers lost during World War One. Byaduk is home to the magnificent Byaduk caves, large underground volcanic formations known as lava tubes that form part of the Volcanic trail. Activities that can be enjoyed in Branxholme and Byaduk include heritage town walks, scenic river drives in Hotspur State Forest, fishing, bushwalking, horse riding, swimming and tennis.

Camping at Rest Areas Regulations in Victoria.

Rest Area Definition: A rest area is a safe area beside the road where motorists can pull off the roadway to rest.

You can sleep in most of the rest areas in Australia for 20 hours consecutive, but pitching a tent and setting up camp is prohibited.
Some areas of Victoria might have different time limits, so be observant and check if there are any erected sings with limits.

Facilities vary within each Rest Area, some may have public toilets, fireplaces, bbqs, picnic tables etc. or they might have nothing more than a place to safely park your vehicle.

Note: It is important motorists use rest areas designated for the type of vehicle they are driving.
