Tourist attraction Scenic spot

👍👍 This is a really special spot. Amazing for sunsets or star gazing, it’s accessible by car or by a couple of nice bush trails and it gives you great views without having to walk too far if you’ve got young uns or old uns. The hill is quite a ride if you’re a cyclist, worth keeping an eye out if you... People often mention view, city, Great, Melbourne, nice, spot, great, views, lookout, walk,

    Great view of the City, however can get quite busy. Great spot for nighttime photography of the City and surroundings.

    Wurundjeri Spur Abbotsford Loop walking trail: It’s more of a long walk than hiking trail. Trail signage isn’t best and in the last one section is washed away that can put you off the trail but you cannot be lost It’s another gem in urban Melbourne. I highly recommend it.

    Good place for street racing in inner city Melbourne, just be careful for nagging cyclists and pedestrians. When they're not around it's a nice bit of road.

    Not a bad lookout I suppose, you don't get a good vantage point but the scenery is very nice, having the mesh of the city and bush.

  • 5/5 Greg B. 4 years ago on Google
    This is one of the best views of our wonderful city of Melbourne.

    Great spot to view the city skyline .I'm hoping to come back and get some awesome sunsets

  • 5/5 Phil T. 2 months ago on Google • 156 reviews New
    Pretty good lookout if you want a photo shot of the city buildings. The place is great for sunset photos, otherwise it has bike/walking tracks for those who love riding or walking towards the Yarra river from this lookout. If you walk further down the lookout walk path, you can take some good nature photos.

  • 5/5 Lexie P. 7 months ago on Google • 22 reviews
    What a great place to get a great view of the city. And the road that it's on is a great twisty bike ride.

  • 5/5 cat i. 9 months ago on Google • 21 reviews
    Located just about 500m of M3 off of Chandler Hwy; This is a serene lookout that really does come alive at night; Stunning, sweeping views of the city amidst greenery and isolation. What else could someone ask for.

  • 3/5 Mighty J. 8 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    It's okay for a stop if you walk up the hill after crossing the pipe bridge. You can see the city through a gap in the trees.

  • 5/5 Tim J. 10 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    Why haven't I done this before I keep asking myself! Such a good walk, so much to keep your interest. It even goes through Collingwood Farm and past the rapids on Yarra Bend. One minute you're in bushland next you see the city buildings.

  • 5/5 Shashini K. 1 month ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    Nice and quiet area near city.

  • 5/5 Udeepa L. 2 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Good for relaxing evening with city sunset

  • 5/5 M O. 3 years ago on Google
    I recommend this place more Wills St, Kew A hidden gem nestled in the suburb of Kew, nicknamed ‘The Dog Park’ – because whenever you go there you are sure to meet a furry friend. This picnic spot is an escape from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne’s CBD that is located so close that it seems too good to be true.. The scenic view of the Melbourne city skyline is nestled among native trees and bushland of the area, making this spot the perfect location for nature lovers. While you’re there, why not take a carefree stroll down to the Yarra Boulevard? Nearby is the tranquil BellBird Park, another favourite picnic spot that connects to many other scenic trails along the Yarra River.

    Great view to close to Melbourne City!

  • 3/5 Matt M. 2 years ago on Google
    View is nice but it's just the side of a road. Follow the path down towards the bridge for some nature.

  • 5/5 Chunyang T. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice city views. Especially sunset.

  • 5/5 Pooia L. 2 years ago on Google
    A nice place to sit in your car, have a coffee and enjoy the magical scene of CBD at night. Take your camera with you, you will take great shots !

  • 5/5 Senthil Krishnamurthi N. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful views of the CBD Skyline from the reserve forground.

  • 3/5 Bianca A. 2 years ago on Google
    Im fairly newish to Melbourne and I though it was all flat so this was a nice suprise... a nice local lookout and easy walking trail rather than having to drive all the way out to the Dandenongs for a hill walk.

  • 5/5 Amr S. 2 years ago on Google
    Well, it’s not only a lookout. It’s a place where you can either walk, run or ride your bike for miles and miles. Fantastic scenery and serene environment. It is the place to go really if you’re after hiking

  • 5/5 Maru t. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice CBD view

  • 5/5 Gajendra Singh S. 2 years ago on Google
    Feels like small nature reserve. Great place to be at. Driving to lookout is experience in itself, single lane road with nice curves and awesome view. Just 5.5kms from CBD.

  • 5/5 Ian A. 1 year ago on Google
    One of my regular stop off points cycling around Melbourne. The view of the skyscrapers across the inner city forest in Kew and Fairfield is a world view.

  • 5/5 milan q. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect loop for weekend drive. Take your time and enjoy

  • 4/5 Xavier B. 1 year ago on Google
    Very pretty but I would go during the day as there is a nice walking trail to do aswell. Spooky at night.

  • 5/5 Chaos C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great spot to relax with friends, car and bike enthusiasts. The blvd ‘run’ is a nice relaxing drive with beautiful and amazing views

  • 4/5 Jacob J. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited Melbourne and thought I'd check out one of the local lookouts, unfortunately Melbourne is relatively flat so the view was somewhat underwhelming. Still worth checking out, but now I've seen it I don't think I'll need to visit again

  • 5/5 Pitam B. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect place for city view. Have parking space, very neae from CBD

  • 5/5 Ana A. 1 year ago on Google
    It is a Great view.. we went through ncheck it out, to see if we could come back and view the fireworks for newt years... But there isn't much parking there so we decided against it

  • 2/5 Felipe B. 1 year ago on Google
    The trees are too tall, doesn't let you see the skyline as it should be

  • 5/5 Geraldine T. 1 year ago on Google
    Inner Melbourne walking track and look out, serenity with lots of birds

  • 4/5 Sveta S. 1 year ago on Google
    The view is limited but still amazing. Worthy to visit in different weather conditions and times of day.

  • 1/5 Antony J. 3 years ago on Google

    Serenity!!!

  • 3/5 Malcolm Y. 3 years ago on Google
    Just splendid. Good place to rest your bike and ponder.

  • 5/5 June M. 3 years ago on Google
    Most of the look out points needed a bit of walking.. not for me. If you like great walking tracks ,cycling and motorbike runs a big YES 🥰.. lots of curvy roads and hilly terrain. Beautiful.

  • 3/5 Pete J. 3 years ago on Google
    Although access is limited, there are great views towards the city, especially at sunset.

  • 3/5 Tajinder S. 2 years ago on Google
    The city view is now hindered by the tall bushes but the walk is still pleasant and you can spot some beautiful birds

  • 5/5 Hirutha 3 years ago on Google
    Mad view

  • 5/5 Kai Ying L. 4 years ago on Google
    Great sunset views of the city, also a cool spot for star gazing

  • 5/5 Tim T D. 3 years ago on Google
    A nice lookout and excellent walking and cycling tracks along the river.

  • 5/5 Camilo R. 6 years ago on Google
    So I am cycling and I stop in this lookout for a short break. I am about to start again I realise that I got a flat tir. Maybe it was a piece of class. so I call my mate and ask him to pick me up and I wait around 40 minutes and it was epic to have the lookout just next to me. I could say that they were the best 40 minutes of my day

  • 5/5 Pradeep S. 3 years ago on Google
    Top 2nd lookout from my list. 1st one is Mt Ridley Lookout.

    Great view, close to CBD, great twisty roads. For motorcycles be aware of bumpy surface and tricky corners especially southbound

  • 5/5 A G. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice view of Melbourne CBD. There are a few car spots to stop and enjoy the view. There is also a bridge where you can walk and see the city view and also the highway.

  • 5/5 Phong Dinh H. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing view from here, great for some relaxing moment. Unfortunately the weather aren't really supportive on the day I come here

    Great spot to take in views of the city and to view New Year's fireworks. If coming for New Year's, get there about midday as the good spots always get taken early.

  • 5/5 XY 4 years ago on Google
    Great spot to view Melbourne city from a far. A spot to view new year's eve fireworks too.

    Neat little hiking / biking / boating area. Good scones , lots of places to sit and lounge on a nice day

    Great view! Just make sure to get here early to get a good spot 😂

  • 4/5 Johnno Page r. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a five minute stop along the road for a quick photo of the city of Melbourne. On this bend is a trail which goes to the city and to the fair field boat house. Their is not much left here but in years gone by this was a very bust place as it’s near the old nut house

  • 5/5 Sailesh P. 4 years ago on Google
    The view😍
