Lovely, laid-back Melbourne has something for everyone: family fare, local and international art, haute boutiques, multicultural dining, Australian and Aboriginal history, spectator sports, and pulsing, swanky nightlife. Cruise on the free City Circle Tram loop to check out unique attractions like the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Healesville Sanctuary, which buzzes with local animal species.

Capital City Trail

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

The Capital City Trail is a dual-use cycle and pedestrian trail. Getting around it would be an awfully long walk, so most people prefer to cycle. The Yarra Bend park is a good place to start. The Capital City Trail also connects to other trails, such the Yarra trail heading into the city and the Merri Creek path. The whole Capital City Trail is around 30 km (19 miles) so it would take you around a day going at a steady pace. Water fountains are located around every 2 kms (one mile).

Outer Circle Rail Trail

Reviewed By platypus150 - Melbourne, Australia

Today I walked the Anniversary trail between Camberwell High School (near Riversdale Station) to Canterbury Road (through Boroondara Park). The walk is fairly flat, as it was once a railway line and passes through stands of huge old Red Gum trees. Canterbury Road offers food and drink opportunities, while Boroondara park has a large children's playground.
