ONE PLANET Shop

Camping store

👍👍 Very impressed with the help I received at the One Planet shop in Little Bourke St, particularly Manu. She patiently explained and showed me all the features of the Goondie tent, nothing was too much trouble. The tent was ultimately a bit heavier and smaller than what I'm seeking, but I will defin...

Hanging Rock Summit Walk

Hiking area

👍👍 I remember coming as a kid and now take my kids. It’s a short walk so suitable for all people, but does get steep in parts. Wear sturdy shoes and take water! Even though it’s quite easy to get to the top, there is a lot of rock climbing to get to the best bits. You can eat at the cafe, which is nice...

Warrandyte River Reserve

National reserve

👍👍 A beautiful trail which allows dogs both on and off leash depending on the section of the walk. The river can be fast flowing in places, so caution with dogs swimming, however there are a few sections which are more shallow and great for swimming with your dogs. Plenty of areas to stop on the trail...

Mount Lofty Wonga Park

Hiking area

👍👍 Great hiking or just sitting and watching the sunrise. Kangaroos are plenty and fun to watch, especially on the golf course. Take care if driving dawn or dusk as plenty around the road.

Mathias Walking Track

Hiking area

👍👍 A beautiful and quiet trail with wonderful views as you make the 3.2km walk (each way) on gravel paths from one end to the other. The gradient is not too bad and does not tire you out. It was lovely passing other dog-walkers along the way. We were there on a Saturday in June and it was not very busy...

Dights Falls

Weir

👍👍 The falls itself was under maintenance when we visited but if you keep walking through the boathouse route, there’s a great spot to sit and chill just next to the water! Very relaxing. Great place to bring dogs too!

4.60 (327 reviews) (~15.18 km from centre)

Grahams Dam

Glenfern Valley Bushlands

👍👍 Beautiful, relaxing place to go for a stroll after work. Keep your dog on a lead as you will come across wallabies and other wildlife suddenly.

4.60 (159 reviews) (~42.26 km from centre)

The 100 Steps of Federation

Tourist attraction

👍👍 The 100 Steps of Federation is located inside Truganina Park. This is a large open space that is well landscaped and maintained. The steps are an easy walk from the car park. There is a wide view from the top where you can see the Cheetham Wetlands and the city. Great place for a family walk, fresh...

Gresswell Forest

4.50 (86 reviews) (~44.68 km from centre)

Lerderderg Gorge Circuit

Hiking area

👍 I went out to check this hike but, the actual entrance for this hike is located at Mackenzie Flat area Park. I completed the Graham Dam hike which was so easy, family's were completing it with there kids. Such an easy walk and it currently has water in the river, so good for swimming or just to ta...

Cheetham Wetlands

Nature preserve

👍👍 You come here to appreciate the ecological impact and importance a place like this has on the environment. Urban sprawl on one side- Point Cook Marine Sanctuary and Port Philip Bay on the other. All flat ground 1500m walk to the lookout. No toilets or rubbish bins. Take your rubbish with you!

4.40 (178 reviews) (~27.94 km from centre)

Gold Heritage Walk

Hiking area

👍👍 A beautiful walk with the opportunity to learn about the history of the area along the way. Some steep sections and loose gravel, but manageable. It's interesting to see the mine entrances and imagine what it was like at the time. The tracks could be better signposted.

4.40 (58 reviews) (~26.37 km from centre)

👍👍 Lovely easy walk through to wetlands in the heart of the Yarra Valley
