K Road Cliffs

The K Road Cliffs in Werribee South are a breathtaking wall of red by day and are even more impressive during dusk and sunset when they change colour with the light.

The view from the cliff top takes in the Werribee River and the wetlands on the flood plain, with the peaked outline of the You Yangs forming an impressive backdrop.

The river and wetlands continue to provide habitat for water and migratory birds, as well as platypus making it the perfect place to get out those binoculars.

Start your walk (about two kilometres return) from the car park at the K Road Cliffs. Access is down the escarpment so watch your step as this is a natural setting with native wildlife.

From the cliff top you can see the Werribee Golf Course to the right. The view from club house and bistro is also particularly good, making it a great spot for a sundowner.

Across the river is Werribee River Park, which is another access point to the western side of the river. You can’t access the cliffs, but you do have an amazing view. Werribee River Park offers several walking trails including easy boardwalk access down the escarpment.

The K Road Cliffs are just a 30 minute drive from the hustle of Melbourne – perfect for a quick getaway with space to breathe.
