Keeping yourself active during lockdown is important for your physical and mental health. Walking for at least 10,000 steps a day will improve your mood. Amazingly, Melbourne is surrounded by so many beautiful parks that we could use for exercise during this lockdown. Here are some exercise place recommendations :
1. Holmesglen Reserve
Holmesglen Reserve is located along Gardiners Creek Trail. This reserve is only 10-15 minutes walking distance from Malvern East. Recommended for those who would like to go for morning or evening exercise. This park is dog friendly, so bring your dog along when you go out for an exercise.
2. Yarra Trail
Cycle, stroll or jog with a view of Melbourne’s rivers. There will be shared paths for walkers and cyclists. Even though you are only a few kilometers from the city but feel thousands of kilometers from the city. A great trail to relax and enjoy nature.
3. Royal Botanical Garden (RBG)
If you live 5kms from RBG, it’s worth it to exercise here. The size of RBG is approximately 38 hectares and is surrounded by beautiful trees, flowers, lakes, and lawns. There are almost 50,000 individuals from 8,500 different species. You can enjoy the beauty while exercising.
