Australia's beauty spot

Overview

Quote:

Benalla is beautiful and sunny in the warmer months, so you could take the family to the playground. The beautiful Rose Gardens are filled with colour during the spring, and at that time Benalla hosts the ‘Rose Festival’ with fireworks and markets, all of the family will enjoy it! You might want to walk around the lake or even swim in it, the walk is around 4 km so it is quite a workout! The Benalla art gallery has some of Sydney Nolan’s most famous pieces or art in it. Nolan was a local artist who painted a lot about some of the history in and around Benalla. Close to Benalla is the Glenrowan siege site, “Kelly’s last stand,” and Winton motor raceway, which hosts the "V8 Super Cars."Quick Tips:...Read More

Benalla 'Rocket Park'

Attraction

Quote:

Surrounded by the scenic and well-known Benalla Rose Gardens, the playground is a great way to keep the kids interested for a while. Because the main feature of the playground is a giant rocket, the park is fondly known as ‘the Rocket Park’- kids of all ages will love climbing to the top of the rocket for sliding down from the second level. Stop in for a picnic lunch during spring and talk while the spring colour of the Rose Gardens surround you.
