A short picnic run up to One Tree Hill Picnic Grounds at Tremont. This is above the 1000 steps/Kokoda Track Memorial Walk in Ferntree Gully. The One
Tree Hill Picnic Ground where climbers can stop to admire the view or have a breather.
Arrr... Not us, we will be buzzing in on our Vespas easily, as we are the VCoM riding club.
The name “One Tree Hill” is a bit misleading. The forest was cleared in the 1860s, leaving one solitary tree as a survey marker. Today it's a beautifully forested picnic area, with views towards Melbourne. A perfect place for a Vespa Picnic, pack a sandwich and cuppa in your top box or under your seat, we'll lunch and enjoy the views.
Meeting at the Britannia Mall for a coffee 10am for a 10:30 departure (485 Whitehorse Rd/Maroondah Hwy Mitcham). Usual meeting place.
A 90km meander through the beautiful Dandenongs, it's a must, to up go on the Mountain Hwy to Sassafras...
then in a round about way to Olinda, Monbulk and Kallista, Belgrave and then Tremont (One Tree Hill) for our picnic stop.
Please arrive with a full tank of fuel.

Thank you Peter for a nice relaxed ride in perfect Autumn weather. A very clever choice of roads made it so pleasant. We could see your brain working overtime to get us through Ringwood and it’s Anzac parade ha ha.
Thanks... to all our riders, a fabulous picnic!
Will be in NSW Peter. Have a good time.
Looks like a lovey ride Pete, sorry I wont be able to make it...
