Churchill National Park

ENDEAVOUR HILLS, Victoria

Churchill National Park, located in Melbourne's south-eastern suburbs, remains an example of the original landscape found in the region before clearing and settlement took place. Although most of the park is open regrowth woodland, there are small areas of original forest. Churchill National Park and the adjoining Lysterfield Park take in much of the southern side of the Lysterfield Hills. Both parks are home to a variety of native birds, mammals and reptiles.

Park hours

The park is open from 10:30am to 4:00pm all year.

Getting here

The main entrance to Churchill National Park is off Churchill Park Drive (Melway 82 C11) and the entrance to Lysterfield Park is from Horswood Road (Melway 108 D2).

Things to see and do

Churchill National Park offers excellent opportunities for walking, cycling, water sports and barbecuing. The Eastern Boundary Tracks are ideal for peaceful walks, jogging and cycling. Visitors to the park may be lucky enough to spot parrots, honeyeaters, wrens, thornbills, grebes, pelicans, cockatoos and even the migratory Japanese snipe. At night, you may catch a glimpse of a wallaby or a kangaroo.
