ATTRACTION KEILOR NORTH

The Organ Pipes, a set of basalt columns formed by the cooling and cracking of molten lava, are the most well known feature of the park. Enjoy a picnic, a walk and the spring wattle blossom. Things to do - The park is an excellent place for picnics, walks, bird observing and photography. - Stand on the viewing platform - the basalt Keilor Plains all around you are part of one of the world's largest lava flows. - Walk down the path to view the 'organ pipes' - a set of basalt columns formed by lava. - Look for yellowish sandstones and mudstones across the creek 200 metres downstream from the 'organ pipes'. - Fossils in these rocks suggest they are sedimentary rocks laid down under the sea about 400 million years ago. - Walk upstream about 400 metres past the 'organ pipes' and see Rosette Rock - a radial array of basalt columns like the spokes of a wheel. - Look at the Tessellated Pavement, the tops of basalt columns. - Enjoy a picnic while looking out for waterbirds, blue wrens, cockatoos, rosellas, magpies and wedge-tailed eagles.
