Macedon Regional Park @ Macedon (my rating A):

Macedon Regional Park is about 1.5 hrs drive from City.

Part 1:
We parked at Harbison Picnic Ground, and did the walk to Camels Hump Car Park.  The whole walk is 4.8km.  It took us nearly 3.5 hrs to complete the trail and return.  The walk starts near the tea house.

 

(Map from Park Victoria)

Some sections are quite steep, loose stones are throughout the path.  Wearing walking boots would be wise.

Suggest you to get the map / Park Note from ParkVic beforehand.

Part 2:
Hello, Macedon!  Again................

This time we parked at the McGregors Picnic Ground, had lunch, and started the walk towards the Camels Hump Lookout.  I've found my favourite Picnic Ground!  It's here, at McGregors!  Quiet and Paceful and Relaxing, surrounding by the big tall trees, green grass, several picnic tables and benches.  It's not as popular as Harbison Picnic Ground, thus not as noisy as at Harbison.

The walk was easy, especially from Camels Hump Car Park to the Lookout, it's all paved.

The whole walk took 1 hr return, at the leisure pace.  We spent an additional hour at the Lookout!
