Four things you can do with the kids this weekend!
With the weather warming up there’s no better time to get the kids out and about to enjoy the great outdoors! Here are four spots that offer various walks that are under an hour’s drive away from Attwell.
- Organ Pipes National Park
Organ Pipes National Park is located just 20 minutes north of Attwell. The park’s unique rock formations date back over a million years, when huge amounts of lava flowed over the area to create the amazing columns.
Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy after a walk into the valley to soak up the spectacular views.
- Long Forest Flora and Fauna Reserve
If you’re after a new walking trail, head to Long Forest Flora and Fauna Reserve to enjoy the wildflowers, ancient rock formations and spectacular birdlife. The park has multiple walks of various lengths, and if you have a keen eye then you might just spot an echidna, koala or wallaby.

You can even bring your barbeque supplies to cook up some lunch on the river’s edge, as you enjoy the untouched natural wonders the park has to offer.
- Macedon Regional Park
The Macedon Ranges is known for its incredible day trip locations, lunch favourites and weekend getaway spots. Each of the quaint towns in the area brings its own personality, creating a magical feel for those travelling through.
