Ten Things To Do Close To Ballarat
- Sovereign Hill is a recreated 1850's goldfield township that brings history alive!
There are over 60 buildings depictive of the era, and costumed volunteers will pose for
photos. There is even real gold in the creek!
- Dating to 1884, the Ballarat Fine Art Gallery is the oldest of its kind in Australia.
It houses important colonial collections, and is home to the Eureka Flag, which
symbolises Australia's only armed rebellion.
- To see some fine local and regional aboriginal art visit the Kirrit Barreet Cultural
Centre and Art Gallery. This is a great educational outing for the kids, who can also
take a boomerang throwing lesson.
- A visit to either the Ballarat Wildlife Park or the Ballarat Bird World is an
educational experience that will allow you to get up close and learn about Australian
birds and animals.
- The Prisoner of War Memorial and the Prime Ministers Avenue can be found in
the Botanic Gardens, surrounded by the lush and beautifully maintained gardens with
thousands of different plants and flowers.
- Want to see beautiful mountain views, rugged landscapes and bush thick with
Australian wildlife? Then take the short drive to the Grampians, one of the most awe
inspiring mountain ranges in Australia.
- For an historical experience like no other, head to Ararats Gum San Chinese
Museum. This pays tribute to the Chinese miners that were such an important part of
the gold rush years.
- The Tangled Maze is a large botanical maze of twists and turns with walls made
of thousands of plants and vines. Great fun for the family, you can also enjoy mini
golf, bocce and giant chess here!
- Imagine the look on your childs face when they catch their first trout? At Tuki
Trout Farm you are guaranteed a catch in their heavily stocked ponds, and they will
even cook it for you as well!
- Creswick Woollen Mills has recently opened its doors to the public, so to see
the last coloured spinning mills of their kind in Australia go for a tour of this large
institution.
