Alexandra Gardens Park

Fancy a tranquil getaway that is easily accessible in Grampians? Check out the Alexandra Gardens Park, a scenic garden in the heart of Ararat.

Located on Vincent Street, the gardens are an attraction for visitors from all walks of life.

One of the main attractions at this botanical paradise is the walk-in fernery. The display of ferns gives Alexandra Gardens an exotic feel that makes visitors feel closer to nature as well as allows individuals to appreciate the preservation of nature.

A trip to Alexandra Gardens Park is not complete without making time to tour the Japanese Island and Alexandra Lake. The themed island gives insight into Japanese culture while the lake provides much-needed serenity away from life’s frenzied pace. For visitors who want to relax and reflect, this is the perfect place to visit whilst in the Grampians region.

Nature enthusiasts will fall in love with the remarkably unique biodiversity of the gardens, with various plants including perennials, natives and alpines. The gardens full of roses are a sight to behold when the flowers are in full bloom, the perfect blend of colour and fragrance. The herbal gardens offer the ideal place to take an evening stroll.

Visitors to Alexandra Gardens Park between December and February will be treated to a remarkable and rare display of petunia and marigolds as they emerge from the terrace beds. The gardens are a must-visit for anyone spending some time in the Grampians region.
