Mamma can't believe this place. Put simply it was once an operating farm that is no longer in use - and anyone is welcome to come and enjoy this country style oasis in the middle of the suburbs! Named after the horsehoe bend in the Maribyrnong River that runs around it, the old farm has plenty of old sheds and stables to wander around (most boarded up and locked). Little imaginations can run wild here with lots of areas to explore.

There is a bountiful fruit tree orchard with the most beautiful HUGE fig tree which you can make into a cubby and also climb, two huge barns, post and rail farm fencing, grasslands, picnic tables, a farmhouse garden and courtyard, elm trees, peppercorn trees, lemon trees, old farming equipment, walking tracks all around and also by the river, and some picnic shelters too. There are plenty of walkers, bikes and explorers on the weekends but may be a little quiet during the week.

Wear clothes and shoes appropriate for exploring and there is pram access around the place via gravel paths.
Please note: there are NO ANIMALS here - the farm is not operational. Just to be clear and not to disappoint in that regard.

Mamma's special mentions: there is a cool playground nearby called Cliff Harvey Lagoon Reserve and also Bonfield Reserve !
