k road cliffs, werribee

K Road Cliffs is one of those hidden gems in Werribee that feels a world away from Melbourne’s West. The area has had some upgrades and there is now a clifftop walking path that winds along the edge with bench seating and lookouts, giving you front row views over the Werribee River below.

With its striking red cliffs, native birdlife and wide open river, it genuinely feels like you’ve landed somewhere in the Northern Territory. It’s a little wild, a little unexpected and perfect for a mini family adventure.

Mamma recommends taking a wander along the path, soaking up the views, then heading back up top to one of the picnic tables for a relaxed snack or lunch with a seriously good outlook.
