This sprawling property - that becomes yours for the duration of your stay - offers a slice of life of the rich and famous with its' own tennis court, heated swimming pool, spa, sauna, sprawling outdoor deck and sleekly furnished living and dining areas. You can even arrive at Hazeldene Yarra Valley via helicopter, landing at the property's own helipad.
Linking the Yarra Valley with the mountain areas around Marysville is the road known as the Black Spur Drive. Starting at Healesville and finishing at Marysville, Black Spur Drive is famous for its heady scenery of spectacular tall forests. The 27.9 kilometre drive winds its way up the Great Dividing Range.
The Mount Donna Buang Skywalk at Cement Creek, 9km from Warburton at the junction of the Mount Donna Buang Road and the Acheron Way, is a 40m long aerial walkway - one of only three in Australia. The walkway takes you into the rainforest canopy 17 metres above the ground.
