Pound Bend

Reviewed By JasonS1347

This is a beaut spot that most Melbournians I've talked to don't even know is there! It's great for a relaxing swim or float in the river or exploring the rocky tunnel (water shoes recommended!) A great pastime seems to be the kids tossing balls up in to the tunnel and catching again after it bobs down the mini waterfall. Also a BIG TIP from a comical misadventure I ended up on with my children (that could have been disastrous!) The highlight of jumping in with a tube and peacefully floating around the loop (bend) in the river for an hour was recommended to me so we came all prepared with 4 inner tubes. What I failed to do was double-check which side of the 'bend' we got in!! *Definitely DON'T get in on the left carpark or West side of the loop!!!!* I mistakenly led my children around the river for almost an hour, in the wrong direction, before realising we were lost. After traversing some fun gentle Class 1 (or less rapids) we eventually ran into a large tree blocking the river at a path exiting out to a campground, Longridge Park I believe. Some kind souls gave us a ride back to Pound Bend. A 10 min drive but would have been a 40 min walk with no shoes!

I walk this track regularly and always think how lucky we are to have gorgeous places like this to roam in. It never fails to please, even the coffee at the end is good too!

Warran Glen Cafe

Reviewed By Valralph

This is a lovely cafe serving beautiful food to everyone ‘s taste. After a walk around the gift shop and nursery it’s lovely and relaxing to sit in the cafe with a coffee and cake, or a full meal of your choice.
