My Macedon lookout is a wonderful walk through Bush and exotic flowers set up as a memorial. More than that you get 180 degree views To Melbourne and Hepburn Shire. There’s picnic and bbq facilities and a cafe for drinks and light meals. The cafe has walking track maps inside the main door. This trail map is a valuable guide for all trails short or long walks and hikes around the mount. You can spend 1/2 hr to 3 hours here. Enjoy.

Lovely park, bbq facilities, shady trees and an enchanting walk down a series of stairs (takes a few minutes) to an ancient waterfall. The rock here date millions of years. Go back in time.

Just a short drive from Hanging Rock and if your thirsty for some wine sampling you get to taste some interesting wines. Known more for white wine (Heathcote has the signature Shiraz red). enjoy a sunny afternoon sitting and taking in the scenery with wonderful wine.
