East Gippsland acknowledges the Gunaikurnai, Monero and the Bidawel people as the Traditional Custodians of the land that encompasses East Gippsland Shire. We pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in East Gippsland, their Elders past and present.
Road Trip
Undoubtedly the best way to see our region is by packing the car, turning up the tunes and navigating your own way through this magnificent part of the world. We are so proud of the diverse range and quantity of drives on offer to show visitors. Don’t forget to stop off and take some happy snaps, shout yourself an extra coffee and let the world know what you’ve found by #loveeastgippsland
