arthurs seat eagle, arthurs seat

There is something incredibly peaceful and tranquil about the Arthurs Seat Skylift. It could be the reason it is called the eagle. You soar, slowly, up the hill without a sound. Mamma is tempted to whisper to the family as not to disturb the peace. The sound you are most likely to hear apart from the birds chirping, will be the gasp you will make at the view. It is stunning. From the Dandenong Ranges in the east, the mouth of the bay in the west and the entire front beaches of the Peninsula, you won't get a better view of the place we call home. 

The gondolas are roomy with ability to take eight passengers and a small pram would fit nicely too. They are a big improvement from the days when it was just a ski-lift type arrangement with a flimsy handle locking in your seat!

The ride up takes around 10-15 minutes, once up you can disembark and explore the beautiful gardens or grab a meal at the cafe.

It’s a great way to take in the magnificent beauty of the Mornington Peninsula!


Mamma’s special mentions: Keep the adventure going and head to Enchanted Adventure
