Ben Cheong Great place to relax, exercise and clear the mind. Heaps of open space without too many people. Rolling hills of nature with great views. Easy to get in 10k worth of steps while enjoying the fresh air. Public water fountains to rehydrate. Multiple different playgrounds for kids, free bbq facilities and toilets. Good for family lunches and kids birthday parties and gatherings.

Afsaneh Gh Heide Museum of Modern Art is a delightful destination that welcomes dogs and offers a beautiful setting for a leisurely day out. You can stroll through the 6.5 hectares of parkland, taking in stunning sculptures while your furry friend enjoys the fresh air. The area by the Yarra River is particularly lovely, featuring shady spots where dogs can even take a dip! The museum itself is rich in history, having While entry to the grounds is free, visiting the galleries requires a ticket.

Tim Richardson "Tram Park" is what all the kids call it. The lawn is not very nice and it has the patch shade that gum trees give, but ... it has a clean toilet, water, bbqs and is over the road from a great cafe and a really good beer & wine shop, and the kids love the tram, the spinning thing which mine call the Tardis, and the little climbing wall. Its a pretty decent place for a bbq with a family group. Car parking and a tram stop.

Jeff Ray Melbourne Cable Park stands out as a top-tier outdoor recreation facility, offering a range of activities that cater to both thrill-seekers and families looking for a fun day out. Its combination of unique attractions and commitment to visitor satisfaction makes it a must-visit destination in Melbourne. We rallied a group of ten people, which not only made the experience more enjoyable but also turned out to be more cost-effective. We chose to do the Aqua Fun Park—the inflatable obstacle course on the water. It was super fun but absolutely exhausting after multiple attempts to climb over obstacles and make it across without falling in. You definitely need some upper body strength, so hitting the gym beforehand might be a good idea! ;) I’m keen to try out the other activities that they hold. There were heaps of parking. They have a nice cafe with nice wooden benches. The only complaint would be the entrance to the inflatable obstacle course—a slimy ramp that made getting in a bit tricky. Also, the lack of indoor showers meant we had to rinse off using outdoor showers, which wasn’t ideal. Melbourne Cable Park is a fantastic adventure spot for groups and families. If you’re up for a challenge and some serious fun, it’s definitely worth a visit!

Trish Fauvrelle Had a wonderful afternoon visiting the homestead and gardens. Very knowledgeable volunteers who highlighted great historical facts about the place and its items. Devonshire tea was delicious and we couldn’t help ourselves and also had their hummingbird cake, sitting outside in the garden. The day was delightful and the weather was being kind. Great day out.
