If you have a fascination with history and nature, then look no further. Plan a visit to the famous Werribee Park to discover the story of an Australian pastoral empire.
This beautiful parkland welcomes all enthusiasts to explore its Victorian-style setting, Italianate-style architecture and famous interiors within the nearby Werribee Mansion.

Take a journey and explore the 19th-century contemporary sculptures within the nearby heritage mansion. The sculpture walk will take you through some interesting trails and feature a wide selection of artworks by Australia’s leading sculptors.
The exhibition also features famous artwork by many talented artists from around Victoria. Some of its sculptures have also won the renowned Helen Lempriere National Sculpture Award.
Check out each of the 29 pieces lining the pathways of Werribee Park. Also, pose for some photos at some of the most picturesque points within the parkland.
The park is just 30 minutes from the Melbourne CBD and is quite easy to reach by car. If your plan is to take a tour or a sculpture walk, make sure you book in advance. The Werribee Open Range Zoo is also right next door, making it an excellent day out for all!
Hi,
I was planning to come to the Werribee Park mansion / gardens this Saturday for a picnic lunch with my family and was interested to know where the appropriate picnic areas are in the grounds? I have been to both the Zoo and the mansion before but not to the grounds to lunch.
Could you please provide me with the details and a map of where we can enjoy a picnic lunch.
With Thanks,
Nathan.
Hi Nathan,
You will find heaps of great spots to picnic at Werribee Park, but I would suggest the Great Lawn where you can get a great view of the mansion.
Here is a link to the Park Note.
Best regards,
