Badger Weir walks, Yarra Ranges National Park

Last updated October 2026

A popular picnic spot in Yarra Ranges National Park, about 15 minutes' drive from Healesville, with three family-friendly nature walks from the picnic ground to Badger Creek. The Coranderrk Track (1.1 km) is flat and suits families with strollers; the Slip Creek Track (1.4 km) and Lyrebird Track (1.1 km) are easy trails with a few small steps. Allow 30-40 minutes one way. Fungi appear in autumn and winter, and in summer the creek is a place to dip your feet. Trails can be muddy after rain, so wear closed shoes, and please don't feed the birds.
