Big Pats Creek Picnic Area

Big Pats Creek Picnic Area offers a serene bushland setting in Victoria's Yarra Ranges, ideal for both day trips and overnight camping. The area is dog-friendly and features a creek abundant with brown trout and blackfish. It's the starting point for the Walk into History and Richards Curves Walk, which follow historic timber tramways. Amenities include a drop toilet, picnic tables, and non-flush toilets. Water is available from Big Pats Creek but must be boiled before drinking. The area is accessible to 2WD vehicles, though space is limited during peak periods.
