Pettys Orchard

Follow the Yarra from central Melbourne to Pettys Orchard, trading the city skyline for river bends, wetlands and leafy parkland. This point-to-point ride passes Dights Falls, the Abbotsford riverside precinct, Fairfield’s bridges and boathouse, Banyule Flats and Westerfolds Park. The rapids lookout near the end adds a memorable river stop before the orchard. The ride finishes at Pettys Orchard rather than returning to the city; plan your return and take care on the shared paths and unsealed sections.
