Wasn’t a real clear day for a good view so just took a couple of photos Near the car park.
iPhone 15 pro max fully zoomed in on second photo. Amazing.

Amazing spot with spectacular views over Melbourne. Not recommended if you have toddlers or young kids as it can be dangerous in certain spots. No toilets or amenities exist. Quite raw and virgin.
Spectacularly unique experience. Observing how flat Australia is!
It is a spectacular location to see the landscape of Melbourne. Melbourne skyscrapers are vividly visible as tiny dots. If you look with high attentiveness, you can even see Geelong! Having moved to Australia from Europe, I am not used to being able to see such a flat land.
It is a very cool experience and definitely recommended. Also, there are beautiful local pubs or bakeries to complement your trip! Probably a day should suffice.

Burkes look out is probably second only to skyhigh look out, it’s worth the drive but do yourself a favour and don’t bother to try get a park at look out only about 10 spots and over weekend many people visit. Best to park at Singleton Reserve a easy 3 minute walk up the road. Plus their are a couple of picnic benches if you wish to eat and relax. No dogs allowed 😀
Short walk from the Burkes Lookout car park. Scenic views over eastern Melbourne all the way to the city and Port Philip Bay. Access via Osprey Road. Very limited car parking. No facilities at the lookout or nearby. Worth the stop though!
Absolutely awesome little spot with some super impressive views. I believe you could see Geelong from here on a clear day. New years eve would be awesome here. Very peaceful lots of places to sit and eat.
The walk is about 200 meters easy enough for everyone. Wheel chairs are ify.
I couldn't fly the drone for aerial shots because of the super high winds. I will come back to get some.

Beautiful scenery with views of Melbourne's east. Great for simply enjoying nature or going on a walk. Easily accessible from the car park. The walk down to the picnic area is not for the unprepared hiker. Don't ask how I know this.
