"Red Rings", red painted steel rings, and polished granite seat sculptures at Dandenong Creek and Eastlink trail, southern section walking and cycle trail junctiion.

East Link Trail -Vermont-Heatherdale Road-south of Canterbury Rd - bicycle and walking concrete pathway.

Entry points to this trail are hard to find on the internet as many links go to maps from Eastlink that are vague as they give no road names or car parking and entry points or Melway references.

Access by car or bike in Vermont at the junction of Heatherdale and Tulkara Grove, where a branch trail goes directly east towards the south b order of Ringwood Golf course to Heathmont Golf Course. and on to Bayswater along a Dandenong creek.

One entry point at the northern section of the Trail is on Deep Creek road off Maroondah Highway at Mitcham. see below for photos.

More informaion as I have time to locate other entry points to use by car.

Mullum Mullum Eastlink Trail at Deep Creek Road, Mitcham.Leads west to Quarry Road near Donvale, east to Ringwood, south to Scoresby.

All traffic noise is gone after about 5 miutes walk from Deep Creek Road west towards Quarry Road, as the Eastlink Tollway road is under ground.

Steep trail in places here... fast cyclists are a danger too around sharp bends.

Historic pioneer farm house Mount Waverley - Scoresby, built 1841 and trees planted 1874.

This old farm house was built in 1841 on part of a large tract of land including the modern suburbs of Melbourne: Wantirna, Bayswater, Ferntree Gully, Upwey, Selby, Emerald, Upper Beaconsfield, Lysterfield and Rowville, established for farming by Rev. James Clow in 1838... the first permanent settlemnt in the Port Phillip District had only begun in 1835.

In 1874 the huge Bunya Pines were planted at the front of the Chesterfield Homestead.

This farm and house was called Chesterfield Park by a new owner in 1859.

Some roughly hewn wood carvings of animals and people are around the farm too.

It is now a farm in suburban Melbourne! It is open to the public and demonstrates working sheep dogs, hand feeding lambs, and whip cracking, cows being milked and cream being made ...all this within about 100 meters of the Eastlink Toll road.

[sheep can be seen on the green paddock near the Tollway close to a factory, in the last photo]
