R.J. Hamer Arboretum is a beautifully landscaped reserve that showcases a diverse collection of native and exotic trees, planted from the 1970s onward. Walking tracks wind through the plantings to a lookout with sweeping views across the Yarra Valley and surrounding ranges. There are interpretive signs throughout the grounds, and several picnic areas are ideal for a scenic lunch spot.
