John Hemmings Memorial Park - Dandenong (VIC)

Rachel McGovern What a great place to walk the dogs. Lots of open paddocks and closed in bushland, so take your pick. Ive even seen a mob of 20+ kangaroos lounging around amongst the tall grasses.

Amy May Amazing park one of the best to be honest. Climbing, hamster wheel, zip lines one with a seat, benches and trees, grass areas for picnic, toilets, plenty of parking, climbing, slides, tunnels, swings just so much highly recommend and could easily spend a whole day here. There is skating area when you first come in and playground is further down on the right side. It is gated with child lock entry and has wider gate access for wheelchairs and such.

Kerbray A pleasant walking track around the wetlands with lots of bird wildlife throughput the walk. Theres a bird hide for bird watchers and photographers, and a childrens playground and toilets at one side of the park. Some of the routes as the name suggests are very wet, particularly after a lot of rainfall. A few routes with underpasses are typically flooded during certain months. Great for some fresh air here at least!

John Locke You can spend a whole day exploring the fantastic Tirhatuan Wetlands because there are an extremely large area of woods, a number of big lakes, many water streams, ponds, trees, flowers, grassland, ducks, horses, birds, rabbits, lizards, fish, frogs, aquatic lives and more excitingly, hidden trails and blocked ways. Watch out for snakes because I encountered a big one. Be cautious! An adventure into the huge and remote wetlands is very challenging because there are tall trees but no man. Very hard for you to find a way out if you’re unfamiliar with this place. No one hears your voice for help. Don’t rely on Google Map’s suggested route because it doesn’t exist in real and some of the recommended ways are blocked by the council, locked fence or rivers. Don’t across the rivers by swimming because it’s risky. Snakes are unseen in water and the water is smelly and dirty. Besides, no one is around to save you if you drown. Ask the local residents or shopkeepers since they know better. My videos and photos show one of the hidden entrance ways to enter the Wetlands safely though you have to pass through a shallow stream and unstable rocks. Be cautious: don’t leave any food or trash in the wetlands or disturb the wildlife or the ecosystem because Tirhatuan Wetlands are a protected and fragile reserve. Respect the peaceful nature. Australia is an environmentally friendly and respectful country! If you don’t wanna risk exploring the wetlands, you can simply jog, cycle, walk dogs safely with your children, families or friends along the Dandenong Creek Trail which surrounds the wetlands. There are the Blanton Drive Playground, a bike track, chairs and large scattered areas of grassland around and close to the trail. So, you can have a picnic, BBQ and do sports at the edge of the wetlands.

Andrew Pham This park is simply amazing. Its the perfect park to have a morning or evening stroll and walk your dogs. If you ever want to have a relaxing time by yourself, you should definitely try out this park. This park is so calming and relaxing it helps you relax and ease your stress. You can also capture breath taking pictures at this park whenever theres amazing weather.

Heiko Griessbach Nice lookout but no parking

D D People can’t seem to understand keep left…. And if you ring your bell people lose their minds and start running in random directions for some unknown reason. Can be very hard to ride through.
