Kingston Heath Reserve — Attraction in Melbourne

A great place to experience nature and semi rural. A lovely walk from magpie car park over to a billabong walk with lovely ponds. From there down a fenced of area that makes you feel as if you are walking amongst farm paddocks.

The reserve itself is well pathed which is nice for relaxed riding, there are a number of drinking taps, toilets and a great playground on the Moorabbin Airport side. We go there often. All the walkers, children and co look to be...
