1000 STEPS Dandenong Ranges | Melbourne
Today I wasn't expecting to go to hike 1000 steps in the Dandenong Ranges in Melbourne, but it was super cool!
I was having breakfast when my friend asked me do you wanna go to this place called Dendenong rages, I was like: Yeah why not!
Once we got there I realized I had to climb 1000 steps and I knew I was not prepared for it.
This dandenong rages in Melbourne is a place with a lot of nature and beautiful for families and kids, its has many places for picnic and is just very good to spend a great day.
Once I thought that we were about half way to the end of the 1000 steps we actually reached the end and that why such a short video.
But in the end we had a great morning and got to breath some fresh air.
Hit me up in the comments for any questions!
