Rock Track, Olinda, Dandenong Ranges NP



Rock Track is in the Olinda Section of the Dandenong Ranges NP, 35 km east of the Melbourne CBD.

It links Mathias Rd with Golf Course Track, and offers wonderful views to the distant Yarra Ranges and the Silvan Reservoir.

On October 10, 2008, I did a 4 km return walk, starting at the small car park at the junction of Falls Rd and gated Mathias Rd, then along Mathias Rd, and on to Rock Track.

My route passed through tall forest, next to the Olinda Golf Course, and along the perimeter of the beauthful National Rhododendrum Gardens.

This part of the forest is a habitat for lyrebirds, but none were seen on this trip!
