We decided on the chilly nine degree Melbourne day to venture out into the fresh air and…

…get some exercise. On the Tesla’s navigation, we found the Alfred Nicholas Gardens, in the Dandenong Ranges, Victoria.

Leaving our nearby home in Emerald, we followed a windy road through Sherbrooke, missed a turn, then continued along as the Tesla’s navigation re-routed us without judgement through another few kilometres of windy roads. The scenery of fern trees and giant eucalyptus is spectacular, so we didn’t mind the diversion.

The car park across the road was a bit of an adventure with new arrivals guessing if any places were left.

The gardens are magical! Government owned, free to explore, complete with a lake, waterfalls and absolutely stunning greenery. Added bonus that people can bring their dogs along to explore and receive pats!! Highly recommend.

Charging:

All powered from our home charger and solar panels. But we could have just plugged into a normal power point.
