Beechworth Forest Drive

The Beechworth Forest Drive begins from the town and passes through the peppermint forest near Lake Kerferd. The 5km Gorge Scenic Drive, also a pleasant walk, provides views of waterfalls and rugged countryside west of the town. It also passes the restored powder magazine, built to safeguard mining explosives.

At Woolshed Falls, a self-guided historic walk of about an hour follows a scenic track through the Reids Creek goldfield. Eroded gullies indicate various mining activities.

Other walking tracks connect Lake Sambell to Lake Kerferd, and a network of tracks link points of interest in the Gorge area including Fiddes Quarry, the precipice and cascades.
