Bushwalking and hiking are popular in the cooler months of the year, whilst Victoria's bays, lakes and rivers provide the perfect place to cool down from the summer heat.</p> <p>Caring for our natural environment is an important part of your park visit. During spring, many of the 3,000 native animal species are welcoming new arrivals which need their space from people. Help us conserve and protect nature and all its inhabitants by following all park signs and directions from our rangers.</p> <p>For more inspiration or exciting things to see and do in Victoria’s parks and reserves, <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://confirmsubscription.com/h/r/38617028A8393E2A2540EF23F30FEDED" target="_blank">subscribe to our monthly Outdoor Inspiration e-newsletter</a>.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="component single-item-detail component--less-space"> <div class="component-content"> <div class="container"> <div class="row component component--less-space"> <div class="col-sm-6"> <h3> Celebrate spring in nature </h3> <p> It's all about the birds and the bees.<br /><br />Spring brings new life across Victoria's natural landscape.<br /><br />As the days start to get warmer and Melbourne is bursting with festivity, spring is the social season to get into nature.<br /><br />Relax in the sun with a BBQ or picnic, or get active with a walk, run or cycle. </p> <a href="/explore-nature/explore-nature-this-spring" class="button button--transparent" >Explore nature this spring</a> </div> <div class="col-sm-6"> <div class="single-item__frame"> <img src="/-/media/project/pv/main/parks/images/places-to-see/dandenong-ranges-national-park/2-walking-dandenong-ranges-national-park-1920x1124.jpg?rev=06066a3f70764c42ab100eef15c79a97&la=en&h=831&w=1420&hash=8B9EEC419720D383E471EC87698FD20C" class="single-item__image" alt="Two women in activewear follow a path through tall mountain ash trees." /> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row component component--less-space"> <div class="col-sm-6"> <h3> Keep cool and play safe in summer </h3> <p> Bask in the warm summer sun and enjoy the health benefits of nature.<br /><br />Keep cool in watering holes, alpine climates and secluded woodlands and rainforests.<br /><br />Remember to always put safety first and obey all park signage and ranger instructions. </p> <a href="/explore-nature/summer" class="button button--transparent" >Pack your summer smarts</a> </div> <div class="col-sm-6"> <div class="single-item__frame"> <img src="/-/media/project/pv/main/parks/images/campaigns/pack-your-summer-smarts/pack-your-summer-smarts-1920x1124-b.png?rev=6cc2cc170d054106a257737e2811163e&la=en&h=831&w=1420&hash=5C762E103326031A6E25F2C6D536892A" class="single-item__image" alt="" /> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row component component--less-space"> <div class="col-sm-6"> <h3> Experience nature in autumn </h3> <p> Enjoy Victoria's dramatic landscapes and breathtaking scenery in autumn to see parks in a whole new light - without the crowds and the warmer weather.<br /><br />The autumn months provide the perfect temperatures for greater exploring of remote places and hidden treasures. </p> <a href="/explore-nature/autumn" class="button button--transparent" >Explore nature this autumn</a> </div> <div class="col-sm-6"> <div class="single-item__frame"> <img src="/-/media/project/pv/main/parks/images/places-to-see/buchan-caves-reserve/family-walking-in-autumn-buchan-caves-1920x1124.jpg?rev=9094b2d57ee94ee2ba4e1e81bab937f9&la=en&h=831&w=1420&hash=F12CDC43A13BA6BE610C4BA4522F56EA" class="single-item__image" alt="A family of three walk under autumn leaves at Buchan Caves Reserve." /> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row component component--less-space"> <div class="col-sm-6"> <h3> Enjoy snow play in winter </h3> <p> Hit the Alpine region for cross country skiing, tobogganing and snow shoeing during winter or for a less frosty nature escape, visit historic sites, learn about Aboriginal culture or simply take a road trip over a long weekend spending two to three nights in regional Victoria. </p> <a href="/explore-nature/winter" class="button button--transparent" >Explore nature this winter</a> </div> <div class="col-sm-6"> <div class="single-item__frame"> <img src="/-/media/project/pv/main/parks/images/places-to-see/baw-baw-national-park/snowplay-mt-st-gwinear-baw-baw-national-park-1920x1124.jpg?rev=d6ccca8fb916426896a812e535e5a514&la=en&h=831&w=1420&hash=E9059E6D086A5CFAAE69569B55F98948" class="single-item__image" alt="A family plays in the snow at Mt St-Gwinear in the Baw Baw National Park.
