Lovely walks, different trails, waterfalls and cascades. If quiet you may see an Echidna. Lots of ferns and mountain ash. Note it is downhill to falls, therefore consider an uphill return - it's worth it.

Situated in a ferny glade in the Dandenongs, William Ricketts Sanctuary is a place of beauty and tranquillity, due both to the natural setting and the mystical sculptures half hidden among ferns along the pathways. It is a place for quiet reflection and for contemplation of the essence of the vision of William Ricketts. Many travel across the world to visit this place time and time again.
