Walking
Melbourne is a pedestrian paradise with its flat landscape, lush parks and gardens, riverbanks and bayside scenery. Discover the best of the city by exploring it at an easy walking pace.
River views and bayside strolls
Wander along a Yarra River path to enjoy stunning views of the city then settle in for a picnic lunch in the Royal Botanic Gardens. For something different, head further afield to St Kilda for a stroll along the foreshore.
