Darebin Parklands

Darebin Parklands landscape

The reserve has natural bush and a country feel, enhanced by Darebin Creek running through it. The area was once home to a dairy farm, vineyard and quarry. There are many areas to explore and numerous options for walkers, cyclists and picnickers. It is managed by the Darebin Creek Management Committee.

Dogs must be under the effective control with a chain, cord or leash.
