Mount Buangor State Park

State park

👍👍 I went to see the waterfall and wasn't disappointed. Though, the signs indicate it's a 45 minute walk each way, you can use Google maps to get to the upper parking/campground and walk just 200 metres. It's a fine little stroll for any level of fitness/mobility. If Parks cut back some of the giant fe...

Bunyip State Park

State park

👍👍 I go here often for four wheel driving and absolutely love it. The tracks range from easily accomplished by a Captiva right up to comp truck breaking challenging. In the wet there are several tracks which prove to be heaps of fun. The camp grounds are quite decent, as are the numerous picnic areas....

Toolangi State Forest

State park

👍👍 Enlightening and inspiring experience. It was very peaceful and i became informed of the devastating work of vic forests; they log close to century old trees just to make flimsy paper, when they could use a much more sustainable option of pine. Logging native forest only brings $12 million annually...

Kings waterfalls

State park

😐 I really want to say good things about this place. The scenery is lovely. The tracks are narrow, the lookout for the falls is pointless as you can barely see the falls. No tracks leading down to the valley to look up at the fall. It's just poorly planned. It could be amazing, if only Parks Vic would...

4.50 (53 reviews) (~30.21 km from centre)

G G Payne Reserve Park

State park

👍👍 Friendly green park directly at the river. This park got a shadowed rest place. Puplik toilet & a water spot. Dogs allowed. Beautyful waterfront. On the right side is a private house with a big cactus garden. All sorts of Cactus there & rare ones.

Langi Ghiran State Park
