Itinerary description

Start at FTGully train station, walk past cemetery then via side streets to entry point of National Park.

Once in park a short climb takes you to Stony Rise Walk Track, which is a narrow, steep, rocky path.

At the top the path widens and turns north via a short rise before descending slightly then up again to the summit of Chandlers Hill. The final decent is steep but wide path and offers great views towards Melbourne City. Exit park and return to FTGully station via side streets.

To avoid walking the side streets park on Olive Bank Road to start a shorter loop.
