The Yarra Valley is well known for its great
wines, although it is also a really pretty place for you to explore.
The area is ideal for cycling around, and offers some good bushwalking
trails. Many walking tracks can be found within the numerous National
Parks in the Yarra Valley, including the King Lake National Park,
Warrandyte State Park and the Yarra Ranges National Park. For
cyclists, follow the picturesque Centenary Trail between Lilydale
and Warburton. The ride is 38km, but the scenery is perfect.
If you'd prefer to travel by car there are a
number of scenic drives you can take. A few drives which are worthwhile
include along Acheron Way, Woods Point Road, and the drive between
Healesville, Marysville and Warburton. Marysville is a truly wonderful
little town, in the perfect setting. There are a number of waterfalls
and bushland walks in the Cumberland Scenic Reserve. You can also
visit Victoria's highest waterfall, Stevenson's Falls. They are
spectacular to see at night when they are floodlit. There is also
a glorious drive around the area on Lady Talbot Drive.
Other places to visit around the Yarra Valley
include the Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary, the Aboriginal cultural
centre Galeena Beek Living Cultural Centre, and the Gulf Station,
a National Trust farm.
