Named after John Murchison an original squatter of one of the three original squatting runs in the district, this lookout sits right on the boundary of the Murrindindi region.
A great platform juts out from the side of the hill here and it is a killer sunrise spot with the sun coming up behind the hills beyond. This area is known as the ‘Valley of a Thousand Hills’ and if you catch it in the right light with overlapping silhouettes you will see why.
There are seats on the viewing platform and under the trees is a shaded table and seat. It’s the perfect spot for not only spectacular photo opportunities but also a picnic with an epic view.
