Marlo & Cape Conran Marlo is located at the mouth of the Snowy River in Victoria’s Far East, 14kms south of Orbost. The Orbost-Marlo road closely follows most of the Snowy River’s final journey through grazing land and pockets of temperate rainforest to the sea. The coastal road at Marlo then heads east to Cape Conran. Along this route is an excellent estuary walking trail as well as lookouts over the Snowy River entrance and ocean. The Cape Conran Coastal Park features a prisne coastline, rocky cliffs and a mixture of rocky and sandy beaches and scenic views from the Salmon Rocks lookout. East Cape Conran and the Yeerung River provide addional boardwalks and trails to explore.
