The Dandenong Ranges are a set of low mountain ranges, rising to 633 metres at Mount Dandenong, approximately 35 km east of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The ranges consist mostly of rolling hills, steeply weathered valleys and gullies covered in thick temperate rainforest, predominantly of tall Mountain Ash trees and dense ferny undergrowth. After European settlement in the region, the range was used as a major source of timber for Melbourne. The ranges were popular with day-trippers from the 1870s onwards. Much of the Dandenongs were protected by parklands as early as 1882 and by 1987 these parklands were amalgamated to form the Dandenong Ranges National Park, which was subsequently expanded in 1997.

Kokoda Trail Memorial- 1000 Steps Dandenong Ranges Melbourne Australia

My experience taking the hike up the Kokoda Memorial Trail- 1,000 steps- in Upper Ferntree Gully, Dandenong Ranges, Melbourne, Australia. It is in memory of the journey Australian soldiers took on the Kokoda Trail in Papua New Guinea during World War II with plaques along the way up the 1,000 steps depicting their journey. It is a great tourist attraction for those thinking of holidaying in Melbourne- I highly recommend you give the trail a go. For locals it's become part of their fitness routine.

മെൽബണിലെ 1000 സ്‌റ്റെപ്സ് കയറിയാലോ ? Dandenong Ranges-Malayalam Travel Vlog

Watch us climbing the 1000 steps in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges at Ferntree Gully, Melbourne. It was so much fun to hike amid the flora and fauna, catching sight of some lovely cockatoos.

Puffing Billy (Full Line) Belgrave to Gembrook

(Best watched in 1080p HD) In September 2018, we took the opportunity to ride the entire length of Victoria’s famous Puffing Billy Railway, from Belgrave to Gembrook, high up in the Dandenong Ranges. Completed in 1900, the 2 foot 6 inch gauge Gembrook line originally ran from Upper Ferntree Gulley. It was built to serve the otherwise isolated communities dotted around the Range and the daily ‘mixed’ trains would carry livestock and farm produce as well as passengers. Sacks of potatoes were a particularly common commodity, with wagons being loaded at Cockatoo sidings. On arrival at Ferntree Gully, they would be transhipped onto the adjacent broad gauge line for onward carriage to the markets in Melbourne. Victorian Railways produced a fleet of NA class narrow gauge locos which were shared between the Gembrook line and three other narrow gauge railways in Victoria. From the outset however, the Gembrook line was popular with tourists, and from 1900 to this day, those same locos, now over 100 years old, have been making the trek into the ranges with trainloads of excited visitors. Unfortunately, landslides in 1952 and 1953 threatened the lines existence. VR deemed it to be uneconomic and sought to close it down. Public opposition was incredibly strong and in 1955, the Puffing Billy Preservation Society took over the operation. Following extension of the electric train service along the old track bed from Ferntree Gulley, Puffing Billy established a new base at Belgrave, the now terminus for Metro services from Melbourne. In 1998, they finally achieved their goal of reopening through to Gembrook, the original terminus, although at the time of our visit, only one train a day ventured over the entire 24km length of the line. It’s that train that we rode! So join us for what has to be one of the greatest narrow gauge journeys in the world. Hauled by 1901 built loco number 6A, we leave Belgrave at 11:10 and travel through thick forest, over wooden trestle bridges and across picturesque farmland before arriving at the wonderful village of Gembrook at 13:00. The journey involves several steep climbs and twisting curves, and the vintage 2-6-2 tank loco has to work hard to maintain its schedule.
