Gould Memorial Drive

Awesome place to visit in autumn. Not a very lengthy drive, Perfect place for an autumn shoot.

Unique nice looking spot especially in Autumn (nowadays). You can stop on the side to enjoy the scene and take photos. Be careful as others may be on the street to take photos. There’s a local person (claiming to be the owner here on google maps) harassing visitors in the name of promoting safety while driving crazy fast and holding down the horn of his ute. Super dangerous and psychopathic.

On a Saturday morning, leaving home well before the sun rise, drove my way to this place 100km away through the thick fog starting at Lilydale and along Yarra Valley wineries which is another experience by itself. By the time I passed by Healesville, the fog starting to clear and the warm ray of the morning sun sipped through the thick Black Spur forest.
Reach Marysville with a clear blue sky, and Gould Memorial Drive is just 5 minutes out of Marysville. There was just a few cars passed & the rows of Lombardy Poplar on both sides of the road were a beautiful scene - blue sky, yellow leaves in perfect harmony. Nice thing is that the sides of the road so wide for parking and not have to worry about stopping to take a few photos.

Great view of roadside golden poplar trees

Sadly, no sign of the crazy local in his ute... I feel like I didn't get the full experience by not getting a mouthful from him.

Memorial Drive in autumn offers a stunning visual treat with its canopy of vibrant fall colors. The scenic route winds through picturesque landscapes, perfect for a leisurely drive or a peaceful picnic stop. With moderate traffic and breathtaking views, it's an ideal way to enjoy the season's beauty.

So nice place to visit during the Autumn time. Like a paradise

Very very beautiful. Autumn colours along here were spectacular. Just gorgeous but won't last much longer.
Would be lovely any time of the year but now is the peak imo.

One of the most beautiful place to visit during Autumn season in Victoria. 5 min away from Marysville town, you can park on side of the road and admire this beautiful view

Dropped by on the way to Marysville in Summer. The natural atmosphere is peaceful. 😉

Took a short drive from town to this location after seeing others review of this place. Lovely place to take a few photos…

Not so much an attraction as a really nice road to drive down.

It's lined with trees on both sides and is very picturesque. If you're in the Yarra Ranges, then definitely a must 'drive through'

Scenic autumny stretch of golden coloured poplar trees. Do find the time to walk from one end to the other, and appreciate this stretch of road.

This is one of the best and must visit places during the early days of autumn. Spectacular views, great colors. Make sure to visit within the first 3 weeks of autumn.

Magnificent place! Worth driving for 2.5 hours from my place. Just missed most of the leaves colour variations. Nice area and great shops and cafe's nearby. Recommended!

Awesome place to visit in autumn. Not a very lengthy drive, but the colours are just amazing. Perfect place for an autumn shoot.

Dint make it in time for autumn, the leaves had bid adieu 😋 but captured some stunning pics nonetheless! Its certainly a spectacular drive.. 🍃 🍁

Gould Memorial Drive at the very beginning of the summer. It is not as much as pretty like in autumn, but it's still something wonderfully overwhelming.

Very beautiful in Autumn when leaves changed to yellow colour

Met a guy fishing & He told me a story that the Local folk have seen everything on this road, Someone dropped a baby before nearly been run over & I saw a guy kiss his dog for a scenic backdrop on his Iphone. great Colours. The next Honour Ave

Best spot to visit during autumn if you're exploring Marysville and surrounding.
