Mayer Park - Thornbury (VIC)

Santo DS Today we experienced the St Andrews Trail Ride with my wife and its absolutely breathtaking. We were also fortunate enough to see a Seal on the beach and the horses were super curious. Thanks for much for this experience and we will be back again.

Jarad Spencer Beautiful place to visit and learn our history. Take the shoes off and feel the same between your toes!!

Andrew McKernan Many of the reviews for this site are misplaced. It is a national park and bird sanctuary. There is no mud, just salt bush and a sandy lagoon.

James Gorman Delightful spot for a ramble on a sunny day. The path was clearly discernible during my visit (albeit a far lighter touch than in a state or national park) and the car park was easily accessible. Best accessible toilets across the road by the oval. Long circuit takes 45 mins to an hour depending on the speed of your amble. Worth a stop.

Barbara Aston Great rock pools and interesting rock formations for photography and exploring. Lots of seagulls too. The day I was there it was more protected from wind than jetty side. Further up is sandy beach.

Justin Wong Awesome art

Richard Mullen This was our first snow trip and it definitely didnt disappoint. We live in Newcastle NSW and we have 3 kids aged 7,8,& 10. We visited in the last week of July. The kids did 2 days of ski lessons and 2 days of free skiing at Big D. They loved every minute and they wouldnt let us leave until the lifts stopped for the day. My wife and I did a couple of 2hr lessons which was enough for us to feel comfortable on the blue runs. We had 40cm of snow while we were there and the runs were well groomed. The lift staff and instructors were very helpful, (with it being our first time). We tried 2 of the restaurants, which were great and the cafe at Big D was average but not bad. If you get there before 9am, close parking is pretty easy to find and if U get there later the bus that runs around to the different runs is very good and has lots of stops. We also met the amazing people at howling huskies and the kids had a dog sled ride. Most of their dogs are rescues which is cool. The only downside is the price. We got gifted accommodation from my parents as a Christmas present at Wyndham and borrowed ski clothes for the kids from friends, but with 4 days lift passes, 2 days of lessons, ski, boot and helmet hire, park entry and snow chain hire it was about $6000, so it may be a few years before we get back. Overall I think we have caught the bug and will definitely visit Hotham again.

Bruce Lots of tracks, best in summertime! Some old gold diggings! Trail bike riders only issue if you like solitude! More information on government website!

Nara Lee Beautiful park for a nature walk! Clearly well-maintained, and has branching paths throughout the park, as well as a playground on either end. Can get quite hilly, as per the area, so please keep this in mind. Love the boardwalks! Felt very immersive, especially as it wasn’t busy.

Andrew G Going to this park for around 15 years. A lot has developed and improved overall so good to see the council investing on maintaining this park. Spacious, grass well maintained, facilities well cleaned and dogs off leash is comfortable. Plenty of wildlife makes it comfortable environment; birds, ducks (someone has walked their goat as well). My dog Scruffy of 15+ years passed away the other week and he was a regular at Terrara Park his whole life. He enjoyed the park every time cheers to all the friends he met at this very accomodating park. Keep up the good work Whitehorse council.
