Hiba’s lookout point - Yarra Glen (VIC)

Amanda Elkoumi Scott was absolutely lovely, extraordinarily helpful and had a wonderful demeanor. The winery itself is very small and intimate, would recommend calling ahead if you want to visit. The wine tasting was great, you’ll get a taste of both white and reds (my faves were the Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon) and we opted for the dip plate for some nibbles, was quite perfect. The views are stellar from the upstairs balcony. Really enjoyed our visit here!

Stuart Pearson Thank you to Louise and Ayla for running a fantastic Edible Forest tour for our school group. We learnt about a range of edible and medical plants, tried a few ourselves and found out about how the Edible Forest is fairly self-sufficient. Louise organised plants for us to take home and the students reported enjoying the session. Thanks again!

Graeme Forbes The Maroondah Dam is a popular tourist destination with quite a bit of history and natural beauty with magnificent trees and of course the dam wall which took 7 years to build Lots of picnic facilities among the trees with a few covered areas for inclement weather

Jason Platty A great place to stop and just have a look. Massive lake, with huge concrete dam. The water level is a 50%. April 2025. You can see how far it has dropped on the shoreline.

Soo Chung Its a nice place to visit if you need time for yourself in nature. I stayed at Airbnb nearby and visited this reserve. There were numerous kangaroos and birds. * However, I am not sure whether I would have enjoyed visiting if I werent staying at a private property. The surrounding area and partial of this reserve are privately owned and related to vineyard where public access is prohibited.

Rhe S The most wonderful meal and experience for our 10 year anniversary. We had the four courses and matched wine. Food, wine and service was impeccable. After a delicious meal, the staff brought out a surprise complimentary dessert after I mentioned when we arrived it was our anniversary. Highly recommended

Ken McDowell I walked along the track with my wife recently. It was a beautiful and tranquil walk. It will be even better when the trail opens to Yarra Glen (cant wait!)

Xiu Chorng Yeoh Incredibly peaceful, but can be boring for certain people or children because there isnt much to see. There are two benches near the entrance with great panoramic view. Plenty of parking spots available and a bus stop nearby, but the bus has one to two hours frequency, so plan ahead.

Luca Romeri I took my subaru around here over the weekend and had a blast driving past the maroondah reservoir. make sure to go to the airport nearby, theres lots of activity over there :)
