A great place to look around with fresh air & views of Frankston, the Bay and Local surrounds. This area and the surrounding houses was bush land in the late 60's early 70's and was famous for its Dirt Bike motor bike & Moto Cross tracks. Most of the walking tracks in this reserve are ex motor bike tracks now maintained as walking tracks. If you like this place then also try the Pines Fauna & Flora Reserve which was used as a council Sanitary Depot and Motor Bike track riding. Enjoy the Serenity.

We visited the Park today and participated in the Keeper for a Day program. This was a fantastic day out and we visited all enclosures as well as behind the scenes areas. Hayley was the most enthusiastic and knowledgeable host and made sure that we both thoroughly enjoyed the day. All the keepers were amazing and eager to share their enthusiasm with us. We both felt extremely welcome and will return, this is the perfect place to bring visitors to get an up-close and personal experience with our native fauna,

Go to the top lookout first so you can see the overall view. Head down and enjoy this steep but enjoyable boardwalk to see the rock, pebble beach and sparkling sea if you go late afternoon. Good shoes or sandals are recommended but many people also had thongs on. Go to the lighthouse afterwards and have a picnic there.

We walk the trail from Mt Martha village toward the Nepean. What can I say, what a gem! Easy path, mostly boardwalk, along the creek. Goes for about 3km each way and just let you switch of. Took us about an hour to complete. Highly recommended.

The summit provides spectacular views which, on a clear day, can stretch as far as the Melbourne city skyline, the You Yangs and Mount Macedon. For a bird's-eye view, climb aboard the all-weather Arthurs Seat Eagle, a state-of-the-art gondola which soars high above the trees. There are plenty of activities to do in the park. From walking, jogging, photography, picnicking and mountain biking. The park’s most popular attraction is Arthurs Seat summit, where visitors can take in the stunning views while enjoying a picnic or barbecue. Take the pleasant circuit walk to Kings Falls or visit the delightful Seawinds Gardens.
Arthurs Seat has a delightful view over Port Phillip Bay. It's named after Arthur's Seat near Edinburgh in Scotland. The area surrounding the State Park is quite affluent. The cable car can take you comfortably to the top of the mountain, visitors can get a very expanive out over the Bay from the cable car.
