Question 1

What are the major attractions in Dunkeld?

Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Dunkeld?

Accepted Answer

With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it'd be much harder to experience all that Halls Gap, 40 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Halls Gap Zoo, Brambuk The National Park & Cultural Centre and Wartook Reservoir. The locals will also probably point you toward Ararat, 45 miles away. If you only see one thing here, let it be Chalambar Golf Club. (But we're also huge fans of Alexandra Gardens Park and Gum San Chinese Heritage Center.)
