Dandenong Ranges National Park

Thick temperate rainforest, quaint hinterland villages and those iconic low rising mountain ranges are what call visitors near and far to the Dandenong Ranges, a quick escape from Melbourne city. Protected within the scenically stunning Dandenong Ranges National Park, the tall forests, lush fern gullies and abundant native wildlife are just waiting to be explored, with nearby cafes, restaurants and artisan shops making for a pleasant day out. Whilst wandering around the Dandenong Ranges, be sure to take a trip on the historical Puffing Billy Railway.
