PINK CLIFFS // HEATHCOTE // VICTORIA
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- The Pink Cliffs are located at Heathcote, in Central Victoria, and are a throwback to the Gold Rush era, when mining ruled the region!
The short, easy walk to the cliffs is appropriate for people of all ages, and there is a lot to see with lots of native flowers and various different kinds of wildlife calling the area home!
Located just over an hour north-west of Melbourne, the Pink Cliffs makes for a great day trip out of the city!

Love all the interesting facts about the places that you ladies go to. Thank you for sharing. Hugs and love to you both. Have a beautiful and blessed week my friends ❤️✝🤗
Thanks very much! Really glad you enjoyed this one!
You were right!! I loved this as you said I would, such a fun adventure, thank you for taking us with you on your journey. The way that you delivered the information regarding the sluicing was very interesting, brilliant scenery and such a positive vibe. Go on more adventures, we love them and love you guys!
Thank you!! We couldn't get out this weekend just been, so the episode coming out tonight is a Top 9 Hikes for beginners list. It's a bit of a recap of a lot of the trails we've done over the last couple of years. Probably put the most amount of work into this one coming so I hope it's enjoyable! Always nervous releasing videos I've tried really hard to make lol
Awesome and we can bring Ruby. Awesome colours. Very informative Zoom. Love your hair Betty, gorgeous 1940’s classic. Great adventure as always. Thank you for taking us along. Thumbs up 👍🏽
Thanks mate! Yes! I thought of you being able to bring your pup on this one! Not a heap of options out there that you can bring the pets along for these days! Glad you enjoyed :)
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie thank you I did 😘
Very interesting area! Nice time in the lake afterwards, too!! OH! And I love the watermelon float!!
Thank you! Of course the watermelon and pineapple floats were all betties doing!
Informative as always 😺.... beautiful spot...
Thanks much!
How cool is that! Exploring Australia's nature...cool video!!
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow what an awesome spot!
It was! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing
You're very welcome!
So interesting! Looks like an amazing spot! You captured it so well :)
Thanks very much! It was cool! Reminded us of a tiny version of the national parks in Utah!
Looks like an awesome place to explore. Would definitely look beautiful with the light from the setting sun on it too and always good to end a summer hike with a swim. Great vid.
It was! Well worth it! By the time we were at the lake it was getting on 40 degrees, so we were keen to get in that water!!
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie yeah that’s getting pretty hot. Good old Aussie summers. 🤣
How beautiful, your narration is fabulous. It’s kind of like a travel segment, now I want to go there for a visit 😃 xx Cathi xx
Thanks! I think I'm getting better at it each time :)
Crazy its cooler up here than in Victoria. John
Dropped down and we got torrential rain here today! Its a mixed bag lol
Love watching your adventures guys! Beautifully done, love learning about all these spots 🙌🏼 will have to go visit :) love Anita 🐝🌻
So glad you enjoy! Thanks for watching!
lovely vlog
Thanks very much! If you liked this one, you might like our hollow mountain one we did recently. Bit more exciting of a trail!
Hi friends. New subs here! We enjoyed this video, and the information you shared about the Pink Cliffs. Neat area! Beautiful lake, too. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much guys! Really appreciate you coming across to check us out and join along our adventures!!
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie Definitely. You are a total rock star!
@@McGuiresOnTires Haha, we wish!!
Looks like a very interesting place to explore. Btw, you did a great job on the narration:-)
Thanks so much! The narration is something pretty new for me, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
haha cute floats! Wow. Our human greedy(in the gold rushes) when restricted or stopped altogether results in scenic views too!
Yeah they didn't care so much about the damaged cause to the landscapes back in the gold rush era! Leaves us with some interesting things to look at now though!
Jealous you are all walking around in shorts, lol! I miss green! First I thought yall were rebels going beyond the fence but they don't care about that big guy lol! You guys are making me miss summer so much!!! Love your adventures!
Haha don't worry, in a couple of months the tables will turn and we will be watching your weather longingly!
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie fair enough. Until them well watch your adventures !
Great movie people! Those old miners sure weren't into mine site rehabilitation. Check out the book "Sludge" to find out just how much they devastated the Victorian landscape. You should next go to Vaughan to see the "Red Knob" gold mining enviro catastrophe! Happy travels!
That looks super interesting! I didn't know about the Red Knob place until now! The photos on google look awesome! And yes you are so right. I'll keep an eye out for that book! My family are from mining, with my mother growing up on the opal fields and then around the time I was born, my grandparents moved to the golden triangle where Grandpa ran a gold mining set up. It was only small and not super successful lol - but it did open my eyes a bit about what goes on! I don't think he really cared too much for the landscapes more than he had to, to be honest. He closed that up around 1995 from memory.
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie My great grandfather was foreman of the Shamrock Goldmining Company in Bendigo in 1895. He was the son of an Irish convict so I come from good stock! The mine was on New Chum Reef, corner Ophir and Old High Street. A local gal like you probably can find that spot. ☘️
@@59markr I know the general area for sure! Although we are currently living in Melbourne, Bettie and I both met when we were living in Bendigo, so it's definitely our neck of the woods! I grew up another 40min up the calder hwy.
G'day.
This is cool. I have heard of this place and never actually seen it. Not even photos.
Just looking though your content and this stood out like dog b...
biscuits . 😁👍 Just had to watch.
Really nicely done by the way. Quality content you two.
Oh and the lake. I have not been there since I was a kid.
I was born in Bendigo and most of my relatives are there and we often spent time out there.
Looked like you were enjoying it.
All the best,
Daz.
Hey Daz! Thanks for checking it out! We met when we were both living in Bendigo so it's our former neck of the woods too! Lake Eppalock went almost completely dry a few years back during the drought, but it's back in action these days thankfully!
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie Oh, nice!
Although we are 90 minutes north, my wife and kids still use Bendigo for trips to the cinema, present shopping and a bunch of other stuff.
All the best,
Daz.
@@MyAussieGardenKitchen where are you? I grew up another 60min up the Calder Hwy but that was more north west.
@@theadventuresofzoomandbettie I'm on Gunbower Island. Beautiful up here.
Wearing sandals or runners in lakes rivers good idea so many idiots smash beer bottles .
Always good to swim & check the water 1st to see if trees in river B4 jumping in
Take a yabbie net use any bait off cuts - Love a feed of yabbies .
I have super soft baby feet that don't do well on rocks and stuff, so water shoes are the bees knees for me! I forget them often, but when I have them it's so good! LOVE yabbies!! We used to go yabbying all the time as kids! The nets I have are illegal now, so I really should get some new ones. Have big long term plans to get a dam at the new house and put yabbies in!
I love how you edit your video for sure and all the information you provide. It is so pretty over there. The cliffs there are so pretty. I don't think we have anything like this in IL. New Sub to your channel. This place was like a mini grand canyon. The drone shot was great also. Your hiking gear is so much more fancy than ours. Love the poodle look.
Thanks so much! We haven't been to the grand canyon, but we went to zion, and this definitely reminded us of utah too!!
Hey , nice video here, great content about travelling.. Do you live in Victoria?
We do indeed! Thanks for watching!
great channel just found you new sub
Thanks so much for joining us!
