Lavers Hill
|
Lavers Hill is a place of natural and man-made beauty where a diverse society can fulfil an individuals ambitions
and hopes in harmony and safety. It is believed that the first men to enter the district in 1856 were hold
prospectors. In 1891 after being surveyed the area was opened for selection and the first white settlers were
Stephen and Frank Laver.
The picture above was taken from the west looking east toward the 'Tee' junction where the Beech Forrest Road and the Great Ocean Road intersect. The town has a variety of services including tea rooms and restaurants. Spectacular views from Lavers Hill back across Johanna's beaches and Cape Otway are awe inspiring. The local community has published an informative web site highlighting the towns attractions and its natural appeal. Use the Trades and Service Directory to locate more Lavers Hill web sites. From the community web site I quote "Despite appearances of a very quiet district, there is a bustle below the surface, which cannot be seen until time is spent in the town. There are opportunities to participate in a wide range of activities, as well as the option of being left alone to enjoy privacy, should this be preferred". |
