This is a challenging 3.5km walk with some steep gradients. There is a fantastic interactive playground, exercise equipment and off-leash for dogs at Price Park. Viewbank Reserve has a playground and tennis courts.
Look out for cockatoos, corellas and rainbow lorikeets, as well as some great views of the Dandenong Range from Price Park.

Review:
At Price Park there is a very nice playground with shaded BBQs, three unshaded tables, water tap with bowl for dogs and toilets. The reserve also has an outdoor gym and fenced dog park. The reserve is quite large with an area of pine trees and other areas with gum trees. At the east end is a big grassy area, set of swings, water tap, bins and AFL / rugby posts.

After leaving Price Park, the walk then passes through a standard residential area.
Pass Viewbank Tennis Club to get to Viewbank Reserve which has a playground with basketball half court, unshaded table and seats and a big grassy area with AFL / rugby posts.
Along Robbern Parade the walk is sustained up-hill back to Price Park.
