Dandenong Ranges Essentials

The Dandenong Ranges offer a landscape of cool-temperate rainforests, manicured gardens, and sweeping viewpoints.

Visitors can access panoramic views of the Yarra Valley and Melbourne skyline from Bourke's and Kalorama lookouts, or explore the historic 1930s boathouse at the Alfred Nicholas Memorial Gardens.
