151 miles. Twelve Apostles. World's largest war memorial.
Stretching 151 miles along Victoria's southwestern coast, the Great Ocean Road is the world's largest war memorial and offers more sustained coastal engagement than #7 Col de Turini's forested hairpins. Built by returned soldiers from 1919 to 1932, its sweeping curves pass the iconic Twelve Apostles limestone stacks, rainforest canopy, and Bells Beach surf breaks. The driving is engaging without being terrifying—combining coastal curves with tighter inland sections through eucalyptus forests—though its length means 60% of enthusiasts prefer a partial loop for maximum thrill.
