Dandenongs walk – Upper Ferntree Gully to Belgrave stations

Closed

 

Walk Description

Distance: 16 km

This walk is a point to point walk from Upper Ferntree Gully to Belgrave stations via One Tree Hill, Sassafras and the very pretty Alfred Nicholas Gardens. May is a great time to be walking in the Dandenongs with generally some great autumn colours and stable weather.
The 1000 steps aren’t currently open but the Lyrebird track is so no issue there.
Be prepared to do some steep climbs on this walk!

 

Transport
