If you’re plotting an escape from Melbourne without needing snacks for a road trip, you’re spoiled for choice.
Close picks include Geelong (about 75 km SW), Werribee (~32 km SW), Sunbury (~40 km NW), Dandenong (~35 km SE) and Melton (~45 km W).
For something leafier, try Healesville (~65 km NE), Yarra Glen (~45 km NE) or Lilydale (~35 km NE) at the door to the Yarra Valley.
Seaside more your vibe? Mornington is roughly 60 km SE, and Torquay sits about 95 km SW at the start of the Great Ocean Road.
Distances are approximate, traffic is not; leave early, smugly.
