Browns Reserve - Greensborough,VIC

Anne Hamilton Peaceful spot to enjoy this small wetland area, many different birds call this wetland home. Not much shade, bring a hat, short loop walk but the adventurous can explore further down into Plenty Gorge area.

Jack Denney Really good playground and green space next to a sports oval (where people frequently walk dogs). There is: a big sandpit with a water spout, electric BBQ, drinking taps, small half court basketball hoop, exercise equipment, lots of parking, and several different playground apparatuses. The outstanding one for us is big vertical spinning wheel, so we call this the "hamster wheel playground". The only downside is the only restroom available is at the big sports club next to the grounds. They feel a bit far away for a little person in a rush, and Im worried they could be locked. Otherwise, this is a great playground.

Alexander Cafarella Nice nature reserve dedicated to the Brown family, you often see kangaroos and other animals here.

Jade Rosina McCutcheon Just my favourite walk ever. Seems to go for 4 or 5 klms. I came across it by accident, being new to Ballarat. Its just like taking a comfortable bush walk. No huge inclines or steps. Wide path, you can take your dog on a leash and bicycle along it as well. A very healing, relaxing thing to do.

CL16 Absolutely amazing local landmark! The Trestle Bridge is a must see landmark for rail-enthusiasts.

Sean Otto Nice park. Dog friendly. Public toilets. Canteen available but possibly only when a game is playing. No kids playground. Few nice statues around to have a look. Cricket batting cages and pitch in the middle of the football oval.

M Mohebbi Very beautiful park, lots of activities for kids, and also lots of parking and barbecue places. What makes it more beautiful are the old and tall trees there.

Greg Moloney On the Yarra river at Eltham. A wonderful spot to visit and sit by the river. There are no picnic facilities or public conveniences here. The area remains in its natural state. This spot was my swimming hole in the 1950/60s. It hasn’t changed. It’s a short, steep walk down to the river. The no dogs etc sign relates to the Parks Victoria managed area.

Carrie Lim Open every Sunday and Wednesday only during the school holiday. Check the availability from the official website. Lots of fun for all ages. Salute and appreciate very much to all the volunteers managing and maintaining all these beautiful miniature trains. They are all very helpful and friendly. Take extra miles to take care the under previledge. We took 2 rounds of the ride! Be prepared for the long queue for at least 30 minutes to 40 minutes! Other than the ride, there is a copper butterfly park for the kids. Noticed all the kids love the place so much. One can walk further to the creek for a nature walk and some garden bird watching.
