Breathtaking Views of Mornington Peninsula from Arthurs Seat - 6km Hike

Details

Let’s hike to the highest point on the peninsula—Arthurs Seat Lookout—for some truly breathtaking views. The walk up from the Mornington Information Centre takes just over an hour, winding through scenic trails as you climb the 300m hill. It’s a local tradition and a rite of passage for peninsula explorers. At the top, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of the coastline, Mornington and Bellarine peninsulas, and even the distant silhouette of Melbourne’s CBD across the bay. You are welcome to carry takeaway lunch. We will also make a stop at Arthur's seat - Cafe for lunch.
