Werribee gorge

As Parks Victoria describe it: This incredible park of 5hectares is an amazing expanse of rocky outcrops , plummeting cliffs, rich vegetation and abundant wildlife. It takes about minutes to drive there. It’s a great Melbourne day trip which we love doing.


Best Trails Angels Landing Trail. Rattlesnake Ledge Trail. Potato Chip Rock via Mt. Vernal and Nevada Falls via the Mist Trail. Chavez Trail and Beaver Brook Trail Loop.
