Before you start the walk, take time to admire the coastal heathland that stretches out as you approach the sea. Follow the narrow track from the Ocean View Lookout sign as the track heads off in a westerly direction parallel to the Great Ocean Road. Just a few metres along the track there is a seat presented to Friends of Moggs Creek in 2015 in recognition of a 25-year partnership with Parks Victoria. From here there is a great coastal view framed by Drooping Sheoaks.

Having returned to the narrow track you will find yourself walking through a stand of the Drooping Sheoaks providing a sheltered walk even in windy weather. The edges of the track are lined with Cypress Daisy-bush with many bushes of Green Correa with its distinctive tubular flowers that attract honeyeaters to the area.

The first part of the track is a gentle climb, but when you reach the section where steps have been made the track becomes steeper. The vegetation opens up with stunted, wind-pruned eucalypts and heathland plants including Silver Banksia, Common Heath, Cypress Daisy-bush, Horny Cone-bush, Erect Guinea-flower and the rarer Gorse Bitter-pea and Ploughshare Wattle which flowers in June. Once you reach the end of the track you will see the Ocean View Lookout with magnificent panoramic views of the coastline from Aireys Inlet to Lorne.

Having sat for a while enjoying these spectacular views take the track signed to Moggs Creek Picnic Ground. This track joins the wider Moggs Creek Track where you turn right and walk down the slope towards the settlement of Moggs Creek. The track is lined with Cypress Daisy-bush flowering in spring, and the winter flowering pink Common Heath. The track leads you to a gated entrance on this management track. Walk through the gate and there are some steps leading down on to the firebreak and back to the start of the walk.
