Driving from the bustle of Melbourne, it is difficult to believe that Mooroolbark is just 37 km away. The small township, located on the Dandenong Ranges is thought to of derived its name from the local Aboriginal word for red earth.
Mooroolbark and the surrounding towns are perfect for those who love to browse antique shops, or visit galleries and studios. Spend a lazy afternoon wandering through the magnificent gardens. Six of the eight Great Gardens of Melbourne can be found in this region. Or take a ride on nearby Belgrave's claim to fame, the Puffing Billy Steam Train. Follow it up with a Devonshire Tea and youve had the quintessential Dandenong experience.
Another point of interest is the Mooroolbark Community Centre, which has undergone radical changes. The community centre is now surrounded by colourful mosaics and street art, including a stencil art representation of Mooroolbark's most famous citizen, the early 20th Century landscape designer Edna Walling.
There is plenty of accommodation for those who wish to get away. Find a secluded country bed & breakfast, self-contained cottage, or 5 star luxury country house. Whatever your budget, desire or style the Dandenongs region offer it, especially those seeking romance, nature and luxury.Photos
