🌄 Mount Dandenong Observatory & Pie In The Sky — A Scenic Escape Above the Clouds

#hellohalloween #october2025 #naturalwonders Perched high in the Dandenong Ranges, the Mount Dandenong Observatory offers a breathtaking panorama of Melbourne and its surrounding countryside. The cool mountain air, whispering trees, and sweeping views make it a perfect spot for reflection or photography. On a clear day, you can see the city skyline shimmering in the distance, framed by endless layers of green. 🍽️ A Tasty Stop: Pie In The Sky After soaking in the views, we headed to the nearby Pie In The Sky, a local favorite that lives up to its name. Their handmade pies are simply delicious — flaky pastry, hearty fillings, and that comforting warmth only a country pie can bring. It’s the ideal reward after a morning of crisp mountain air and scenic exploration. 🌿 The combination of Mount Dandenong Observatory and Pie In The Sky perfectly captures the essence of a weekend escape — nature, good food, and a touch of serenity just an hour from Melbourne. A must-do for anyone seeking a slice of tranquility and a taste of the hills.
