Steeped with rich history the Central Highlands offers a range of attractions that provide a glimpse back in time. Scattered throughout many trails are large old stumps with notches cut out of the trunk to leaver planks for early lumbers to fell the tree. Evidence of early steam powered mills and logging tram ways can be found in the Yarra forest along the Walk into History.

Frequently Asked Questions
The traditional custodians of this country include the Bunurong (Boon Wurrung), Gunaikurnai, Taungurung (Daung warring) and Wurundjeri indigenous Australians. We acknowledge this land belongs to the sovereign people of the First Nations. This land was stolen from them and their sovereignty was never ceded. This park conservation plan is subject to ongoing discussions and approvals with relevant clans and corporations and fully supports and recognises all their cultural rights, control and access.
