Melbourne to Mildura drive: Road trip stops

No-one’s going to pretend this Melbourne to Mildura drive is any fun, so you might as well take a few stops along the way and turn it into a road trip.

The quickest route comes out through the north-west of Melbourne, passing Essendon Airport and crossing the Maribyrnong River near Brimbank Park in Keilor East. The first genuinely good stop is the Organ Pipes National Park near Taylors Lakes. This national park is small, but easily walkable and dominated by lava-formed rock formations.
