Arthurs Seat Eagle - Summit Station

Lovely spot to visit, the views magnificent. Put it on your bucket list as what I will say means nothing to the real thing.

Purchased tickets online, which was easy and secure with our tickets delivered directly to my email.

Presented the barcode at the boarding zone, which was scanned and we were quickly shown our capsule. One great feature was no matter the size of your group, whether riding solo or with up to 7 others, you get the ride to yourselves.

The ride was smooth and very quiet, leaving us to enjoy the surrounding views. Lots of photos opportunities on the 14 minute trip.

It wasn't crowded but I still recommend buying the tickets online to "jump the que" on arrival.

Staff at the summit and the base were all very friendly complimenting the experience. Highly recommend and it may have been my first, but won't be my last time on the Arthur's Seat Eagle chairlift.

Amazing views, must try experience in Dromana with mind blowing views of Mornington peninsula

Good place for a one day visit..It has a cafe and a few scenic areas you can wander to...We went on a weekday so it was quiet and we had quick service, no queues and plenty of space in the self-serve cafe. Good to visit if it's a Sunny day so you can enjoy the views.

It is a good place for those who want to enjoy the fresh air, be close to the nature, have a walk or simply have an outing day with their loved ones. The cable cars are good for sightseeing and it's a quick journey. It's cheaper for seniors, students, children and families, so don't for get your cards which can help you to deduct the price a bit. Personally, I enjoy the time staying here.

to relax the mind on a weekend vacation with the family. at first there seems to be nothing so "wow" or interesting for adults here except enjoying the beautiful view from above. but... get out of the cable car area and go to the surrounding area. there are many interesting activities that can be done here and there is definitely not enough time to explore everything here. It is hoped that the management can place signs in each lane so that visitors know what is there.

Gorgeous views from the summit, if you’re feeling a bit more adventurous the hike up from base takes about an hour and is worth a shot (moderately steep and not wheelchair/pram friendly though). Amenities at the top were nice and clean, very friendly service from staff. Coffee/food a little pricy but expected given the location. Caught the gondola down, lovely smooth ride with great views the whole way to base. A must do if you’re in the area and enjoy outdoorsy activities.

As a first time visitor, this was incredible. I was still able to experience the history and the views while enjoying a beautiful sea breeze in my face, a gentle ride up and back, comfortable seats, and an incredible gift shop. I wish we could have done this at sunset, I was pleasantly surprised by the ability to view our picture and order it to be printed immediately at the top. The staff were friendly and professional, and we enjoyed our wine as we admired the views from the top. I can picture myself having a picnic lunch surrounded by gum trees and overlooking Mornington Peninsula next time I visit the bushland and taking a walk.

Highly recommend this to be added to your itinerary if visiting the Mornington Peninsula. Offers gorgeous views of the peninsula and you can also see the skyline of Melbourne on a clear day.

The entire experience was pretty great! Doesn't matter how the weather is, the cable car ride will amaze you. Staffs were very friendly and even the cafe was great. We will go there again for a daytrip!

Great experience for a local location. The views are incredible, the staff are very professional, the ride is smooth.
Food is usual take away, nuggets, chips, etc , $4.5 small coffee.
The cars are open with no wind protection, if windy or cold, you need to dress up accordingly.
Can get busy during peak hours but queues move at a decent pace.

We had a wonderful ride down the hill and back up again. It was warm, 37 C, but there was a cool breeze blowing through the gondola as we rode. Great views out over Port Phillip Bay. 5 star recommendation.

Was a great experience took my 7yo and they loved it. We went from base to top, went to the lookout, had lunch, the Cafe is amazing great food and the toilets even the outside public ones were clean and included a parents room. There's a maze and playground as well as plenty of picnic tables also. Before climbing on at base station we did the green screen photo so worth it definitely get the pararama one only $18 and they have packages also so worth it. Then we scanned out tickets again at the summit to come back down about 14 min each way I definitely prefer the enclosed ones we happened to get and enclosed on way up and open on way down and it definitely gets cold in there when its open but was great. Staff were knowledgeable and very nice. Gift shop is there you have to go through it to exit and Cafe has indoor and covered outdoor seating options. Highly recommended very price conscious experience for a great day with lots of other things to do in the area as well.

Lovely day out with the family. Lots a walking track with many offering superb views of the Bay. Gondola ride is well worth it and has great views even on a cloudy day. Gardens are well established, extensive and well looked after with a varied and diverse range of plants and trees from around the world.

Arthurs Seat is so awesome! It's a safe ride that takes you above the mountain to see the picturesque views of the city, ocean and landscapes! The staff are so friendly and lots lots of fun!

Great experience in modern gondolas suspended over bush and roads.
Visited 26/3/2022, weather mild and sunny.
Travelled up the mountain by car and came down from top.
Spectacular views of the Bay, and a bit of Westernport bay. Sailing ships, boats and beaches clearly visible. World class experience.
Gondolas are modern and doors open and close automatically. You can move around them to enjoy the vistas. Return ticket is more economical and they offer concession prices also.
Food and drink is available at top of mountain with indoor and covered alfresco areas. Heaps of seating and good views just sitting there. They are licenced and prices are reasonable for a tourist destination.
Plenty of parking, customer service was outstanding by all staff and snacks were fresh.
You'll appreciate what we have in Melbourne by taking this experience.
Have included a picture of an original chair lift seat for comparison to the old days. Shows progress. Lots of stuff went overboard in old days, mostly thongs, not now though.
Memories to remember for ever.

Great experience, quite pricey, but with the fully inclosed carriages you feel quite safe standing up and moving around. The views are amazing and photo opportunities are endless. Excellent place to take interstate or international tourists. 👍🤓

Arthur’s Seat Eagle is a gondola lift tourist attraction in the Mornington Peninsula. It replaced the original chairlift which operated from 1960-2008 and is named after the Wedge-tailed Eagle, Australia’s largest bird of prey.

There is a Base and Summit Station, I recommend starting at the bottom and taking the gondola up, as there is nothing to do at the Base and plenty of parking.

The panoramic views of Port Phillip Bay across to Melbourne City are magical, we went early afternoon and it was just so beautiful and serene. It travels 314m above sea level, takes approximately 15 minutes each way and can hold up to 8 passengers. Both open or enclosed cabins are available allowing for all weather conditions, except for when there are high winds and it closes.

At the Summit you will find the Eagle Cafe and Arthur’s Seat State Park. There are many walking trails, look out points and gardens to explore. A leisurely circuit around the longest trail took 40 minutes.

Well not many cable car places in Melbourne. If you’d like to support local business then yeah go ride the cable car. The view is amazing and the staff are friendly. If you have kids I highly recommend this place. The summit is better than the base. My recommendation is go to the summit and get a return ticket from there instead from the base.

So many cute stuff and got lovely magenet
