Point Nepean National Park: Range Area Walk

Portsea, Victoria

The 1.8 kilometre walk links the Quarantine Station and Cheviot Hill and meanders through coastal scrub and a former Rifle Range. Climb the Monash Light tower with sweeping views of the park and Melbourne city. The Range Area was used to train cadets from the Army Officer Cadet School. They were trained to firing rifles, grenades and machine guns. Car parking is available at the Quarantine Station or Gunners Cottage (cars are not permitted past this point).
