2025 Yarra Glen Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#wheretogo #greatalpineroad The start of the Great Alpine Road trip, first stop yarra valley, and we stumbled upon this very nice Italian restaurant that uses wood for their oven to make pizzas. As we are famished, we ordered a few pizzas and low and behold, an helicopter stopped just right outside the restaurant and they were here for lunch too. Pizza is fantastic, and their white pizza is a must order as you don’t usually see it elsewhere. Tiramisu is made the traditional way. View from the restaurant is fantastic too. It’s a great place for lunch before continuing the drive to the great alpines

#OverseasParentTravel #OverseasTravel Located near Melbourne, Australia🦘, Yarra Valley is not only a concentration of wineries, but also many parent-child destinations, because it has many natural landscapes🌳! And whether you are traveling independently or with a local tour group, Yarra Valley Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery is a must-visit stopover 👍🏻 Both adults and children were happy because it walked into a museum of chocolate🍫, with many specialty chocolates for retail, as well as an open kitchen where you can see the chocolate making process, very interactive and very interesting, the scene is full of joy! Outside there is an endless grassland, and there are many rest facilities for children to play, very courteous 💕☝🏻

Zonzo Estate is located in the Yarra Valley, an hour’s drive from Melbourne. Against a backdrop of a glorious Yarra Glen vineyard, Zonzo Estate Restaurant is a multi-award-winning venue offering a truly unique Italian dining experience. Since opening in 2007, this contemporary cucina has attracted an impressive amount of attention and with its rustically inspired set-up, it’s not hard to see why. Zonzo’s menu is a compilation of Casalinga-style Italian food, paired with a selection of matching estate wines. You and family or friends can gather over sharing dishes like handmade gnocchi with burnt butter, sage and Parmesan, or a slice of pizza with pork and fennel sausage, Spanish onion, rosemary, asiago, Pomodoro and mozzarella. Our favourite dish was slow-cooked lamb, in wine and mushrooms, served with roast potatoes and salad. It was very tender and the portion was plenty for 2 to share. For dessert, we indulged in Chocolate and almond italian cake topped with raspberry coulis and Cannoli, crisp italian pastry filled with ricotta, pistachio and cherries. Need to book a few weeks in advance to secure a table for a special date!

Went 3 different winery
