Buxton is a small town on the Maroondah highway, between Narbethong and Taggerty. But don't let looks be deceiving, Buxton actually boasts one of the most spectacular walks in the park. The great Cerberean Caldera curves around it's backdrop, a volcanic caldera that blew some 373 million years ago in an explosion so big it altered the world weather patterns. Today the 30 kilometre wide ridegeline offers hikers a great panorama of the Central Highlands. Cathedral Ranges hosts hikes that take between 30 minutes to 120 minutes to walk with paths varying in difficulty.
The town also has a pub, trout farm and best burgers in the region at the service station, home to the famous Buxton burger. There's a great trout fishing and swimming hole called the 'Meeting of the Waters' and a few nice bed and breakfasts to stay in.
