Terrific space for kids and adults a alike. Lots of features hidden in this little gem, including a small lake with trout fishing and a BBQ area to cook lunch. Kids played for hours. Highly recommended.

Keppel Lookout Trail

Reviewed By Plum2007

This is a long hard walk. It takes about 4 1/2 to 5 hours if you come back via Steavensons Falls and is extremely steep on the way up. Wear good footwear and take plenty of water. There are no loos at the top so go before setting off. Wear a hat and take insect repellent and sunscreen. There were lots of March flies. We were really proud of ourselves when were finished the walk and the views are well worth it.

Marysville Lolly Shop

Reviewed By 694JohnK694 - Melbourne, Australia

If you are my age( over 60), you will remember the tastes of your childhood. Umbrella lollipops, spearmint leaves, black cats, humbug, bananas, all those lollies that we used to buy as mixed bag of lollies. The store is so inviting and appealing. Go on. Have some fun. For the more mature palate there are also fabulous products out the back section.

Marysville Information & Regional Artspace

MiRa, Marysville’s Information and Regional Artspace, is a place for everyone. Tourists are invited to visit the gift shop and bushfire display, as well as enjoying the regular art exhibitions and taking part in the range of arts activities on offer in the space. MiRa is also an information centre, staffed by knowledgeable volunteers, providing information on accommodation, eateries, walks, local produce and so much more. For local people, MiRa is an amazing space, only limited by the imagination. MiRa is keen to support the arts in all of its forms, whether visual arts, performance arts, music, writing, or just dabbling in the world of ideas. It provides the perfect location for special events, or regular classes and workshops. If you have an idea, make sure you give us a call or just drop in for a chat. There are already plans in place for a choir and a film club, as well as all sorts of workshops and creative happenings, so make sure you let us know your email address

Lots of tourist info available here from the friendly staff who were on for a chat, which I like. I had a quick look at the attached art gallery and the ceramic pieces in display. Didn't interest me greatly as I'm not an aficionado of the visual arts but it's a good opportunity for locals to display their works. Some lovely and quirky gifts are available here, including different kinds of Australian animals' "poo" (different types of chocolates) and lots of locally produced soaps that looked very tempting. I liked the inclusion of a little table with colouring pencils and activities provided for kids. An attached side gallery contains information and stories from the 2009 bushfires and a visitor's book to sign. Another little side gallery featured a beautiful quilt sent to the residents of Marysville from fellow Australians after the disaster to let them know they were remembered. I found this quite moving. I really enjoyed the free live music on offer next to the gallery on a sunny Saturday afternoon. It was really nice to sit in the shade and enjoy the music for a little while before booking into my accommodation. Thank you Marysville!
