Goanna Golf

Last updated February 2026

Goanna Golf offers a fun, Australian-themed mini golf experience located within the Yarrambat Park Golf Course in Melbourne's north-east. The 18-hole course is uniquely designed with large, engaging sculptures of native animals, including goannas, kangaroos, and wombats at every turn. Set amidst landscaped native gardens, the course provides a pleasant and spacious environment for a family outing. Its holes offer a mix of challenges suitable for both young children just starting out and adults looking for some friendly competition. The integration with the broader golf park facilities adds to its appeal as a well-resourced destination. **What to Bring** Sunscreen and hats are essential as the course is outdoors with limited shade. Bring water bottles. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended for the 18 holes. **Best Age Range** Best for ages 4 and up. Children aged 5–12 will get the most enjoyment from the animal sculptures and the skill level required, while toddlers may find it difficult to manage the clubs and focus for the full course. **Good to Know** Ample free parking is available on-site. The Goanna Golf kiosk sells drinks and snacks, with a larger café and bistro available in the main clubhouse. Bookings are recommended during school holidays and on weekends. The course is generally accessible for prams. **Nearby** Combine your visit with a trip to the nearby Diamond Valley Railway in Eltham, a popular miniature railway that operates on Sundays. Yarrambat Park itself also has a playground for younger children. **Tips From Other Parents** "The café at the main clubhouse is a great spot for lunch after a game." "Try to go in the morning on weekends, as it gets noticeably busier from midday onwards." "Don't forget to have a go at the final hole for a chance to win a free game."
