hanging rock reserve印象

Great day out. A bit of a walk up but views are great. Just take a seat on the rocks at the top and have a picnic

We carried on our journey to here after visiting Mt Macedon and the lovely lunch at the macedon Hotel.My first disappointment was the entry fee but we decided to go in as we were there. There was a school activity on the green, we tried to drive further in but the road was closed.We sat and had a cuppa on a very dilapidated table overlooking the green. Large concerts are held there. The day was quite hot and the cafe was closed.We did walk up to the hanging rock via the steps though there is a walkway also, quite a climb not for the unfit. Overall disappointing,there is an info centre not air conditioned or staffed, I would not go if you are unable to do the walk

Woodend is a lovely country town and a visit to Hanging Rock is a necessary stop if you are heading to the Macedon Ranges area. It is currently AUD$10 to bring your car into the reserve. Bring your walking shoes and a water bottle for the hike to the Hanging Rock peak. You will be rewarded with a lovely view. For those not to keen on an uphill walk, I can recommend the base walk which takes around 30 minutes at a leisurely pace (not flat terrain for a wheel chair). I was lucky enough to see rosellas, an echidna, koala and several kangaroos. There is an interesting visitor centre with displays about the history of the area. Family friendly and with a cafe and oval, Hanging Rock is a nice place to stop off at.

Hanging rock reserve is a lovely place to visit especially if the weather is nice and sunny for a picnic or bbq. To see the actual hanging rock itself you need to walk up the walking track surrounding the rocks and about a third way up you need to climb up the actual rocks themselves but it is achievable if you are of reasonable fitness. There is a guide map at the information centre but we were there really early and it hadnt opened as yet so that was a bit disappointing because there is about 20 places of interest on the rock itself which would have been great to follow. I saw a Kangaroo and an Echidna along the way . There is lots of nooks and crannies. It cost $10 for one vehicle and well worth it. Great day out if you have kids. A little cafe and gift shop but not a great deal of merchandise. If you love nature this is for you.

We visited on a very hot day so the walk to the top of the rock was beautiful but hard work. Usually the walk would be fine as it is not steep and you have the choice of a bitumen track or steps. One at the top you need to walk on rocks but it is fine. The views are lovely all the way up. It costs $10 per car to visit so would be worth spending more time there and having a picnic. We did not have the time for this but will next time. They seem to have a lot of events there like concerts, craft markets and the Hanging Rock horse racing so worth keep an eye on what is happening there.

I loved the aura of this beautiful area.The walk to the summit was impressive, nature at its best.The little walk through centre explaining the history of the Rock was very interesting. Bbq's, picnic areas, toilets and well kept grounds make for a lovely time. I was only disappointed with the lack of choice in the souvenir shop.Well worth the $10 exit fee.

I finally by chance got to go to the iconic location which appeared in Picnic in Hanging Rock. My nephew and I took the stairs up and the path down. It was beautiful scenery and can understand how the movie was able to portray, someone turning a corner and disappearing. It was wonderful, and steep but so well worth it. I am not as fit as I would like to be and so I found it a little harder than my fit nephew. Who loved it and went at my pace, Thankyou to him for that. Go see this location and enjoy the place. we went on the 24th of December 2014 and luckily for us the $10 car parking fee was waved on this day and we got in for free. Locals told us to go on this day as it gets really busy on 25,26 of December. Would go again. There are picnic area's and a run up the rock event in early 2015.

Well worth a visit for international guests. Lots of beautiful walks and the view is breathtaking. Picnic areas, bbqs are clean and well looked after.

A family favourite of ours - we go most years. A good climb to the top - well made paths - but very steep. So wheelchair could get most the way up - but you would need to be exceptionally fit to push it up there... Amazing views though from the mid level back across to Mt Macedon/Camels Hump, and the surrounds. And then from the top vistas in every direction. Cafe is nice..though on staff member was quite rude when THEY mucked up the order...Scones were yummy though.
