Things to See and Do Nearby
CityLink
If you are traveling through Melbourne, we recommend getting a CityLink pass rather trying to navigate around the ring road and through suburban highways. A CityLink pass enables you to travel right through the centre of Melbourne on dedicated smooth CityLink tollways so you can go directly through to the North (Tullamarine and Calder), South and East Freeways, and saves you time and stress.

Bushwalk along the Werribee and Lerderderg Rivers and take in the scenic lookouts. Nearby Exford Weir and Pykes Creek Reservoir offers BBQ, Fishing, Swimming and Boating for the water sport enthusiast.
Vline Train
Instead of driving into Melbourne to have a look around, a 45-50 minute train ride will get you there without the hassle of traffic and parking. The VLine Train service, Melbourne to Ballarat, runs frequently throughout the day, stopping at Bacchus Marsh within every hour.
