Important Information

Fletchers Area Guide Mount Dandenong, VIC 3767

Well-known for its stunning views, Mount Dandenong is Melbourne’s very own suburb on a mountain. Located 35 kilometres away from the CBD, the small township accommodates a small population of just over 1,200 people and thousands upon thousands of tourists each year. The mountain upon which the suburb is located was originally named Mount Corhanwarrabul, although due to spelling and pronunciation difficulties, the name was changed to reflect the entire range of mountains in the area.
