Nearly 180 kilometres north of Melbourne makes it a bit far for a day-trip. However if you are driving in the area this is a great leg-stretching spot. In fact the playground has so many activities, the little ones are sure to sleep well afterwards. There are monkey bars, giant slides, swings, a flying fox, sandpit, maze and a bike trail, just to name a few. In case you were unaware that you were in the fruit canning capital of Victoria, there is even a climbing pyramid made of fruit bins. Barbecues, picnic tables, a café and toilets are available.
