WHAT TO EXPECT
Embark on a delightful 4-5 km walk from the charming Port Melbourne to the bustling Docklands, taking in some of Melbourne’s best waterside views and iconic landmarks. This leisurely stroll offers a mix of seaside beauty, modern cityscapes, and vibrant waterfront precincts.
Start at Port Melbourne Beach, where you can enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and beautiful coastal views. Stroll along the Port Melbourne Foreshore to Station Pier, spotting ferries and enjoying the fresh sea breeze.
Follow the Bay Trail along the water’s edge, passing the stylish South Wharf with its cafes, galleries, and the impressive Melbourne Convention Centre. Continue along the trail, soaking in views of the bay and the city skyline as you approach the vibrant Docklands district.
As you enter Docklands, you’ll be greeted by modern architecture, the Melbourne Star Observation Wheel, and lively areas like Victoria Harbour.
This walk is an ideal way to experience both the serenity of the bay and the energy of Melbourne's newest urban precinct!
We will aim to finish the walk around 9:30pm where you can head to the pub for a drink.
All ages and fitness levels are welcome to this event.
