Marysville Travel Guide

Marysville is a sub-alpine resort town of some 600 people noted for its scenic attractions, forest bushwalking and old-fashioned timber guesthouses. It is also the wintertime base for the cross-country ski fields of Lake Mountain. Marysville is beautifully located amidst tree-laden mountains at a bracing elevation, 96 km north-east of Melbourne and 9 km off the Maroondah Highway. It is especially attractive when the flowers bloom in spring and the trees shed their leaves in autumn. Marysville is known as Melbourne's honeymoon capital with visitors drawn by the bushwalks and Steavenson Falls.  I had my first honey moon there with Geoff.  He took me here to Steavenson Falls and we called our son Steven!!
