Whilst in the CBD, make sure to visit the Cataract Gorge. A spectacular natural formation where you can enjoy long and short walks, fresh water swimming basins, the world's longest single-span chairlift and vibrant peacocks! An additional, unique way to experience this attraction is via the Tamar Cruise vessel, which cruises through the waters that carve between the rocky formations.
Mowbray is near Lilydale, which is known for its many bushwalks, English style gardens and hiking at Mt Arthur. Lilydale falls is nestled amongst the temperate rainforest.
