Adventures to Lerderderg state park

We recently did a little adventure out to Lerderderg State Park. What a wonderful trip it was!

Located in Victoria, Roughly an hour from Melbourne. With not only spectacular scenic spots, but stunning wildlife everywhere. It is incredible to see such a abundance of our native animals out and about. With no rescue calls all day, it made for a marvelous escape from normalcy! Whilst i love having rescue call outs, sometimes the phone not ringing is a relief. The pain we see on a daily basis normally in animals can be very exhausting and rather upsetting too. so a day off is occasionally called for, to reset the mind.

Whilst on our adventure, we come across some beautiful animals sadly not all i was able to catch a quick picture of. But the kookaburras in the tree’s were watching our every movement, The swamp wallabies hopping along the 4x4 tracks and occasionally over ahead of us and of course the insects chirping and singing, A beauty of an echidna too. What more could one ask for? There were no doubt koala’s spectating from above, and wombats sleeping the day away, Maybe even some smaller marsupials playing hide and seek!

The tracks were full of nature and full of vibrant life. With each turn taking us into a different flora & fauna. We went through what looked like a rainforest back to gumtree city, Through what one would only be able to imagine as Australian Bush, with ferns, gum, eucalyptus, flowers and that native smell. Oh i love the smell of all the Australian flora. It really is its own scent. Cant forget the history and roots of our beautiful land presenting themselves everywhere you looked. I had to jump out and get a picture of the tree base bigger then me! Nature is such a miraculous form of true beauty & Inspiration.

Have you been in that area before? What did you think of it? Let us know!

We will definitely be returning!
