We visited the forts as part of our Mornington Peninusla trail walk. Access via a either the bus shuttle or along one of the coastal tracks.
Beautiful surroundings. A bit of a shame they have blocked off a lot of the entrances into the fort. Understandable but a shame.
Well worth a visit if you like history abd exploring! Great day out!
The remains of a bunkered concrete fortress that was completed in 1911, taking advantage of the long-distance firing range of the coastal defence guns into the bass strait. Some great views from this outpost and plenty of information boards to account for this history at this site.
Stunningly well preserved fort with a great write up of its history. This place is both beautiful to walk around and historical in its rich history too.
A lovely place to walk and take in all the amazing views! We had so many breaks in between to just take in the sound of the ocean, the sea breeze and to click pictures to remember the kind of place we took a walk to! Highly recommended and once you reach the fort, don't forget to sit for a while and enjoy :) the other areas are locked out due to COVID but the walk was worth it!
There's a lot to see and do here. There's a bit of walking involved to see the rest of the park unless you have a bicycle. All the fortifications and tunnels are very interesting and have information boards. Well worth a visit.
