Ferntree Gully Quarry Recreation Reserve, Ferntree Gully

Now this is what you call a hidden gem! Tucked just behind the busy highway is this breath-taking quarry, play space and picnic spot. Even the slides have a stunning view

- Wooden climbing structure and swings over a huge sand area - 2 super fast slides for thrill seekers - Shaded picnic benches and BBQ area - Unshaded benches - Pram/wheelchair friendly path down to the quarry - Lots of grassed area (not alot of shade though)

- We saw people taking a dip in the quarry

- Picnic space down at the quarry, however there are LOTS of steps to get down there - not pram friendly - Parking along neighbouring streets (gets VERY busy) - No toilets

BONUS: only a few minutes from Augustus Gelatery
