Gippsland
is
a
region
which
stretches
eastwards,
from
the
periphery
of
Melbourne,
to
the
magnificent
Lakes
in
the
east
and
to
the
extraordinary
Wilsons
Promontory
in
the
south
east.
It
is
riddled
with
masses
of
green
forests
and
gardens,
stunning
mountains,
rocky
rivers,
picturesque
towns
and,
to
a
large
degree,
is
defined
by
its
long
sandy
beaches.
It
was
the
Polish
explorer
Count
Paul
Edmond
de
Strzelecki
who
named
the
region
after
Governor
Gipps.
The
Princes,
South
Gippsland
and
Bass
Highways
provide
the
major
access
to
its
destinations.
