Discover the contrasts of Melbourne: bushland and city sights

Dominating Melbourne's eastern horizon, the Dandenong Ranges promise visitors picturesque forests, cool fern gullies, charming villages and breathtaking views of the city and Port Phillip Bay. Immerse yourself in Sherbrooke's ancient forest, hand feed colourful native birds, walk among the giant mountain ash forests and listen for kookaburras, rosellas and parrots.

See the city highlights on your return, including the Queen Victoria Market, Old Melbourne Gaol, Fitzroy Gardens and Chinatown.
