WESTERFOLDS PARK

Public BBQ

Westerfolds Park delivers an unexpectedly authentic Australian wildlife experience just minutes from Melbourne's suburbs. The expansive grassland slopes along the Yarra River host packs of 10-15 kangaroos, best spotted during early morning or late afternoon grazing sessions. The park's network of well-maintained walking and cycling tracks, including the popular 4.8km Westerfolds Loop, winds through genuine Australian bushland where diverse birdlife thrives. Multiple BBQ areas and picnic spots are strategically positioned with river views, while the rushing water provides a peaceful soundtrack. Despite its proximity to the city, the park's authentic bush setting creates a genuine escape. Ample parking, clean facilities, and dog-friendly policies make it accessible for families.
