Melbourne boasts a huge range of beautiful environments, making the city and the country around it perfect for exploring on foot. Melbournes Best Bush, bay & City Walks, joining the hugely successful walking guides series from Woodslane Press, introduces the best walks for visitors and residents alike, ranging from fascinating city walks and leisurely bay-side strolls to the more natural parklands and bush tracks beyond the urban fringes. Detailed descriptions, clear directions and colour maps help the reader explore Melbournes parks, bushland, bay-side beaches, rivers and most interesting urban areas. As with previous titles in the series, the book is richly illustrated with over 150 full- colour photographs. A summary table of walks indicating distances, facilities and highlights is included to help the reader find exactly the right walk for the occasion.
