Great views. Perfect for hiking and picnics. BBQ.
Relaxing walking trails, gets a bit steeper towards Flinders Peak but worth it for the views.
Beautiful place to hike. Short and easy. Beautiful scared spot and amazing view from top. For plane spotters, amazing angle for planes landing in Avalon with the backdrop of the bay.

Great exercise for the kids! We went when it was slightly showering and it was still good! Actually glad that it was cool!
Rocks can be slightly slippery so be careful and always stay on the path!
We only did 1 trail before the kids got tired but it was pretty cool.
Views when things cleared up where awesome too.
Saw a skink sunbathing in the rain which was funny. Maybe it was thirsty and the spider webs with raindrops on it was actually cool to see.

An easy skip and jump away from Geelong makes this one of my favourite weekend places to visit to get my hiking fix without having to travel all the way to Grampians. The You Yangs has more than enough trails to choose from and most present between a moderate to easy level of challengeness (probably not a word but lets go with it). If your visiting during the warmer weather make sure you've got some water on you if your planning to be more than an our. It can get quite warm and sweaty on the path, and no one wants to drink their own sweat by sucking their t-shirt dry.
There's a nice 5k trail here? Lovely views of the surrounding areas. Try visiting when it's sunny to see everything. My parents are pretty unfit but they managed to do the trail as well. There are public restrooms at the start of the trail as well. Bring some drinks and sandwiches because there's plenty of spots on the trail where you can sit. No camping allowed though.
