Planning a Trip

Getting There

McKenzie's Bus Lines (tel. 03/5962 5088; www.mckenzies.com.au) operates bus service from Lilydale Railway Station to Healesville. (Catch a train from Melbourne's Spencer St. station to Lilydale; the trip takes about an hour.) Buses connect with trains frequently throughout the day (less often on weekends); check exact connection times.

If you're driving, pick up a map of the area from the Royal Automotive Club of Victoria (tel. 13 72 28 in Australia) in Melbourne. Maps are free if you're a member of an auto club in your home country, but remember to bring your membership card. Alternatively, you can pick up a map at the tourist office. Take the Maroondah Highway from Melbourne to Lilydale and on to Healesville. The trip takes around 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Visitor Information

Pick up details on attractions and lodging at the Yarra Valley Visitor Information Centre, Old Court House, Harker Street, Healesville (tel. 03/5962 2600; fax 03/5962 2040; www.visityarravalley.com.au). It's open daily (except Dec 25) from 9am to 5pm.
