Werribee Open Range Zoo
Almost 200 hectares of grassy plains & sweeping river terraces are home to a collection of animals from the grasslands of Africa, Australia & Asia. From the safari bus see zebras, rhinos, hippos, cheetahs, kudus & much more. It's a wonderful safari experience.

The Mansion at Werribee

Werribee Park is an outstanding cultural and heritage attraction offering a full diversity of experience within the one location.

From the lowlands of Scotland, Thomas and Andrew Chirnside travelled to Australia in the mid 1800s.  Armed with determination and motivated by their family motto 'Do or Die', the brothers set about creating a vast pastoral empire.  Werribee Park is a testament to their successful business venture whilst offering visitors of today a rare glimpse into the extravagant opulence of a bygone era.

Step back in time in the superbly restored Mansion and listen to the Chirnside family chatter through a fantastic audio tour.  Meet May, an enthusiastic laundry maid with a tragic storey to tell.

Werribee Park Golf Club

The Werribee Park Golf Club is located long a breathtaking section of the Werribee River next door to the Werribee Park Mansion and Hotel, State Rose Gardens, Werribee Open Range Zoo and the State Equestrian Centre.

The 18 hole course, founded in 1976, is championship length with fully watered couch and ryegrass fairways and excellent greens.  The open design of the course is counter pointed with strategic plantings of trees while its well placed bunkers and water hazards are a test even for the expert player.

The course is blessed with free draining alluvial soils which allow golf to be played throughout the year, even in the wettest winter when most surrounding courses are closed.

Perhaps the most unique feature is the spectacular view from the clubhouse featuring the Werribee River, the You Yangs and the Bellarine Peninsula around Portarlington.
