Information not available for today
    Take a look back in time at the historic Hawkstowe Picnic Area. You'll be impressed by the brick and bluestone Le Page homestead, barn and stables. Take a walk around the picturesque lakes. Sit on the jetty and discover the abundant wildlife. Maybe the friendly kangaroos will come and visit you. The picnic area has toilets, electric barbecues and picnic shelters. Take a look back in time at the historic Hawkstowe farm complex, which sits elegantly on the hill with views of the entire Park. Extensive restoration works have been undertaken on the homestead building in recent times, returning it to its 1860's period. Surrounding the homestead is a cottage garden with mature exotic trees. The Le Page Homestead is the home base for Plenty Valley Arts Inc, who offer arts based activities and events to the broader community. Conditions can change in parks for many reasons. For the latest information on changes to local conditions, please visit the relevant park page on the Parks Victoria website. Be bushfire ready in the great outdoors. Refer to the Bushfire Safety section on the Parks Victoria website for tips on how to stay safe.
