Pitcher Park - Alphington (VIC)

Adam G The heritage listed "Temple of the Winds" rotunda in the Fitzroy Gardens is located north west of the Vistors Information Centre. Constructed in 1873, its one of the oldest structures in the Fitzroy Gardens and is another example of the sculptural elements popular in 19th century gardens. Its very similar but smaller than the Temple of the Winds in the Royal Botanic Gardens. The rotunda is a circular masonry structure with 10 columns resting on rough, dressed and exposed bluestone footings. The columns support a domed roof. The "Temple of the Winds" rotunda is popular for small celebrations and weddings.

Thomas Liontis Cute dog, bigger then you would expect.

Cathie N The architecture is amazing. Perfect area to hang out, social interaction, building community, art& culture events. Melbourne needs more public space like this!!!

666Spook I walk here frequently with my hell hound. Plenty of deadly snakes in summer. I saw a young man fighting a big gumtree, he was slashing its trunk with a box cutter.

p Y Wilsons reserve is one of my favourite places for an easy accessible escape. Within 5 min walk from the boulevard you are immediately immersed in nature with the sounds of the birds taking you to another world. Many walks to take from this location that can range from a quick 15 min lloop to an entire day walk and everything in between. Love, love, love this place.

Rhiannon Malone This place is a wonderful hands on country vibe sanctuary in the inner city area. There are so many animals roaming around for kids to observe and pat. The goats, chickens, guinea pigs, pigs and sheep were very popular with my daughter. The expansive vege garden is brilliant. I loved this place so much after my first visit that I bought an annual membership. An excellent activity for families or people trying to entertain little kids whilst also teaching them about the environment, animals and sustainability.

Peter Campbell Nice bush setting close to the Yarra River with billabongs and some walking and mountain biking tracks. The Main Yarra Trail (shared bike and pedestrian) traverses the park following the river

Joey Di Pietro Great to walk past and see along the beautiful walk.
