Flinders Peak Circuit Walk
Wadawurrung Country
Starting from Turntable Drive picnic and parking area, Little River this walk heads north and encircles the Flinders Peak. The mostly easy walk is great for kids. It offers great views, passes several giant bolders and has a few short scrambles. And why not take your dog too, they're permitted to walk here if on leash. Let us begin by acknowledging the Wadawurrung people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
