Walking Kinglake - Our Heritage July 2020
Updated: May 29, 2022
The Kinglake Ranges Heritage Trail is an excellent place for a walk in the crisp country air, with tall trees and beautiful views along the way and the added advantage of the chance to learn about Kinglake's history and to admire the impressive art work of our local artists. There is no better view of Melbourne anywhere in Victoria than the one from Frank Thomson Reserve so it is well worth climbing the hill for that.
The Trail runs 13kms along the north side of the main road from Kinglake to Kinglake West and it is possible to walk or ride a bike, starting at either end or anywhere you choose. The track is sealed from Kinglake West to Kinglake Central, providing a good surface for wheeling a pram, and children can add a visit to the Lions Club playground at Kinglake Central as well. If your walking distance is limited but you'd like to see what the trail has to offer, it is possible to drive along the main road and stop where you see the information boards.
