Become the greatest SkyHigh Maze Master.

Solving the Skyhigh Maze puzzle was my very first introduction to the serious world of maze mastery.

Situated on top of Mount Dandenong, east of Melbourne, the Hedge maze has been built to thrill all age groups.

You enter the maze from the quaint little Coffee Shop. Note that after you have mastered the maze you can enjoy a sumptuous selection of locally made cakes and a hot beveridge...hmmm.

You are handed a Maze Master card and sent off through the many twists and turns that make up the SkyHigh maze

There are Stations along the way where you stamp your card.

The idea is to complete the card and become another great...

Maze Master.

There are beautiful statues scattered throughout the hedge maze.

Also butterflies, fairies and illusions can be found around every corner.

Congratulations

The Maze is planted out using Lilly Pilly.

There are various arbors throughout the maze that support the climbers, examples of these being...

# The climbing Rose...Pierre de Ronsard

# Evergreen deciduous Clematis

# Wisteria

# Native Wonga Vine

The perfume during the flowering months is exquisite

The quaint maze is part of the English Garden that has been planted out up here on top of Melbourne.

There are meandering gravel paths and several wooden arch bridges that cross over little man-made bubbling streams

Great car parking facilities, disabled access, barbecues and picnic areas makes this a favorite family destination

How to get there.

You can reach the SkyHigh maze from several different directions.

The southern route...by car...follow the Burwood Highway, pass through Upper Ferntree Gully and drive under the railway bridge.

Turn left and travel up the mountain towards Sassafras and just follow the road signs.

The northern route...by car...follow the Mount Dandenong Road through to Canterbury road, turn left and continue to the next round-a-bout at Montrose. Turn right and continue up the mountain, past # The Handorf Chocolate Coffee Shop...no, no stopping yet

Follow the road signs all the way to the top of the mountain...easy.

If you would like a more detailed road-planner then visit My Maps. Follow the prompts and print out the route planner...too easy.

Why not Pack a Picnic and make a full day of it.

How about celebrating that special occasion, what about a Kid's birthday party?

The Maze is open...

Monday to Friday 12.00pm to 5.00pm

Weekends 10am to 5pm

There is a small charge for entry into the Maze, for more details phone 9751 0443.

You deserve a reward and may I suggest from personal experience that this will be a great one to be remembered.

So now that you have mastered this Hedge maze which one would you like to try next?... Solving Mazes can become quite addictive.
