Burkes Lookout - Mount Dandenong (VIC)

5 /5 Yin Li Wong: Great view of Melbourne. Only a short 5-10 minute walk from the car park. Make sure you google map it to Burkes Lookout Carpark. If you google map it to this spot, it will bring you through a weird no through road

4 /5 Zafar Faisal: 5 minutes walk from the car park area, if you search in the g map, you will find it. The lookout is really awesome! Make sure you put extra layer of clothes during this season! It’s very windy and chilling! Good spot for sunset view from the top!

5 /5 Moti Cohen: Absolutely incredible view. This is one of very few national parks in the Dandenong Ranges with a clear view of the landscape including the city. Very sad to hear that 18 people died in a plane crash here in the 1930’s. I was extremely lucky to get parking. There is extremely limited parking. I recommend coming very early to avoid the chance of being unable to find parking. Unfortunately, like as mentioned in some other reviews, there is a significant littering problem, every path I hiked had quite a bit of rubbish scattered over the landscape. It’s very unfortunate that tourists/visitors feel like they can dump non-biodegradable rubbish into this beautiful landscape. Maybe adequate signage could help? If you live in Melbourne or are visiting here, there is no question you should come here, it’s absolutely stunning, even though there is a littering problem as well as limited parking.

5 /5 Shannan Filbey: A fabulous view of Melbourne and as far as Geelong on a clear day. Easy to get to with only a short walk from the car park which is small so parking could be an issue on popular nights. Go early on these days.

3 /5 Nicholas Holdgate: The view is pretty good, but the lookout has room for improvement. Theres no platform, its just an open gap in the trees along a quite busy running/cycling trail. Theres not much parking available, and google maps wont direct you particularly well. Some signs would go a long way.
