Step back in time in Blackwood, once a thriving goldmining town. Nowadays, this tiny hamlet is a popular bushwalking and mountain biking destination, thanks to its location, surrounded by the native forests of the Lerderderg State Park and Wombat State Forest.
Take some time to explore Blackwood’s charming main street and be sure to visit the Garden of St Erth, a short drive from the centre of town.
