Family attraction Fairy Park, located just 60 minutes from Melbourne and 30 minutes from Geelong, has taken over 60 years to create.

Dedicated to tales, myths and legends the park features 32 scenes housed in awe-inspiring castles, cottages and caves set among beautifully manicured gardens.

Stories include all the classics that we know and love, ranging from Red Riding Hood to Rumplestilskin. Visitors can witness Cinderella at the Grand Ball, see Jack in his beanstalk, join the Teddy Bears at their Picnic and hear the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, among many others.

At the park’s medieval Camelot Playground, children can explore secret passages, climb daring towers and meet mystical creatures.

For the young, and the young at heart, Fairy Park has a massive model train set. Just push a button and watch them roll.

Taking it down a gear, the summit at Fairy Park provides breathtaking 360 degree panoramic views of Mt Anakie’s extinct volcano and the rich landscape beyond.

Dining options include the Hungry Knight Eatery for take-away-food (see website for opening days) a Kiosk and picnic grounds.
