🚢 Port of Echuca & Riverfront Walk 🥾

📜 Talk about stepping straight back in time! The Port of Echuca and River Walk is a beautiful walk that shows off everything this iconic town is all about. 🐎⚓

You start off wandering through the historic port area, where horse-drawn carriages clatter past, gorgeous heritage buildings surround you, and the sweet smell from the local lolly shop practically drags you inside! 🍬🏛️

From there, you head down to the waterfront where magnificent paddle steamers glide along the mighty Murray River. There is nothing quite like taking in those classic river views while hearing the gentle churn of the water paddles as they pass by. 🛳️🌊✨

It’s short, scenic, and packed full of old-world charm—an absolute must-do if you’re visiting Echuca! 🌳🪵

Tomaree Head Summit Walk ⛰️🥾💃

Well, most of you saw me doing my little victory dance after reaching the top of this one! 🎉🔝

It is steep and there are SO many stairs, but I have to say, it is honestly the most accessible "difficult" walk I have ever done. There are many sections with sturdy handrails, a boardwalk to carry you further up, and they even have a defib machine... though I'm still not quite sure why it's sitting at the bottom of the stairs rather than at the top! 😂🫀

The views from the summit are considered some of the absolute best in Australia, and I completely understand why. It isn't often that I stop talking, but this time I really did! And not just because I was completely out of breath. 😮‍💨✨

The views stretching down the coastline are absolutely stunning and a total "pinch me" moment. 🌊😍

So yes, it's all uphill. Yes, there are a million stairs. And yes, I would do it all over again in a heartbeat for those views! 🌅🥾

Frankston Boardwalk 🌊 — honestly, I am so thankful that this is in our backyard! 🙌 It is such a stunning walk and for me, with my dodgy knees 🦵💥, it means I can get all the beautiful views of the beach without trudging through and sinking in the sand! 🏖️🚫

And the pièce de résistance at the end... 🏆 when the boardwalk finishes, keep going that little bit further to the Olivers Hill boat ramp. 🚤 Whether it’s Cripps Family Fish and Chips 🍟🐟 or Little Olly's ☕✨, there are food trucks waiting to congratulate you! 🚚💨

🌿 Damper Creek Reserve in Mount Waverley is a true little oasis tucked right into suburbia. 🚗💨

One minute you’re driving down a bustling suburban road, and the very next, you feel like you’re a million miles away, wandering through lush green bushland! We're talking gorgeous tall trees, lush ferns, a gently flowing creek, and birds... so many birds singing away in the canopy! 🐦🦜✨

The best part? There are easy paths to choose from so you can completely avoid any stairs, which is ALWAYS a massive win in my books! 🙌👟♿

If you need a quiet retreat to recharge without traveling far out of the city, this peaceful pocket of nature is so worth a visit. 🌳🍃

Tilligerry Habitat 🌿🍃

What a stunning place! I used to think the Dandenongs had a monopoly on ferns, but heading along the track here puts you right in the middle of an absolute sea of green. 🌿☀️ We stopped for ages just watching the sunlight peek through the fronds.

The path leads you through the bush with plenty of boardwalks along the way until you reach the Tanilba Bay boardwalk. And this is where things get interesting! 😅

Some sections of the boardwalk aren't super well-maintained, so you definitely have to watch your step (literally!). 🪵👟 But oh, the views! You are rewarded with absolutely stunning waterfront vistas as you wander along. 🌊✨

Supposedly there are wild koalas hanging out here too, though they were playing hide-and-seek when we visited! 🐨👀

Such a beautiful walk and well worth the visit... just remember to mind your step! 🥾

So isn't it lovely when your hubby decides to surprise you with a trip to Peninsula Hot Springs? 🥰🧖‍♀️✨ Not only that, but he booked a private spa for 45 blissful minutes of candlelit romance. 🕯️🌿

It was pure heaven... until the dreaded knock on the door to let us know our time was up! ⏰🚪😱

Hubby springs up like a gazelle and hops straight out. 🦌💨

Me? Well... sliding into the spa was easy, but getting out?! How the heck was I meant to accomplish that?! 🧗‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Not sure about anyone else, but with two knee replacements, kneeling is a hard NO. It is the strangest, most bizarre feeling, and I avoid it at all costs! 🙅‍♀️🦿⚡

So there I was, panicking in the water. I tried swimming forward, thrashing around, and ended up flipping onto my back flailing like an overturned turtle stuck in a whirlpool. 🐢🌀💦 Absolutely zero progress was made.

Somehow, in pure desperation, I managed to briefly touch a knee down, grab the edge, and "gracefully" (as IF! 😂) heave my entire body over the side like a beached whale. 🐋🌊✨

Romantic spa escape: 10/10.
Exit strategy: -1/10. 🏆🤦‍♀️

Next time, please send a winch and a rescue crew! 🚜🚨😂

🚣‍♂️ Exploring Echuca from the Water! 🌊✨

Echuca is absolutely wonderful to see from the land, but nothing beats experiencing it right from the water! 🚤🌾

If you are planning to launch, the Victoria Park Boat Ramp is hands down the best option in town. It is packed with fantastic accessibility features designed to make getting on the water stress-free for everyone:

♿ All-Abilities Access: Features an accessible walkway leading down to a floating pontoon.

📐 Smart Safety Feature: The gangway includes a gradient indicator! Since water levels fluctuate, this helpful gauge lets you know at a glance if the slope is safe for your mobility aid or if you will need a hand heading down.

🦽 Boat Hoist Available: There is a dedicated hoist on-site for wheelchair users to transfer into boats (just make sure to bring your own sling!).

Once you are out on the Murray River, the scenery is simply stunning. 🌳☀️ Just remember to keep your wits about you while you take in the views, as you will be sharing the river with historic paddle-steamers and floating houseboats! 🚢🏠
