We recently walked out to Point Nepean to visit Fort Nepean.
A very historic place to visit out on the end of the peninsula with lovely scenery on the way, the ocean and bay views are great, at this point the land is very narrow, one side the rough ocean the other the calm waters of the bay.
The old military fort is a amazing place , built to protect Port Phillip Bay construction started in 1882.
One wonders what hard work that would have been in those days , built with concrete and bricks the gun placements and underground tunnels were a real treat to walk through . After World War 11, the soldiers were removed and the buildings and fortifications declared redundant. This area was closed to the public until it became a National Park under the control of the Victorian Government in 1988.
We are now lucky to be able to enjoy the nature of the place and learn it’s history.
We really recommend walking to the Fort , you can only drive as far as Gunners Cottage where you can leave your vehicle. You can catch a shuttle bus from the Quarantine Station to the Fort at a cost if you wish not to walk .

Walked from quarantine car park to Fort and back- about 6-7kms. Some hills to climb but can make it a leisurely day. Fort at the end of the walk is very interesting with lots of information and incredible views!! There is shuttle to and back-can’t remember the cost

We had an exciting walk to the Fort Nepean where we were able to relive the life in a historical fortress. The roadway to the fort itself was very scenic and even though around 3.8 km we never felt tired. Changing scene kept every step exciting and there were so much of areas to explore. Visit to Fort Nepean was very educational and it was a rare opportunity to see how those who occupied it, lived and worked in crammed space as most cubicles were quite small. Felt impressed by the information that was provided to the visitors through descriptive boards.

One of my most favourite places to visit in Victoria. I don't know what it is about this place. I just love it. The views are stunning, the history of it interesting. It is also considered the thinnest point of Victoria.
If you take the shuttle bus up the driver tells you the history of this place as well as some interesting facts :-)
Enjoy!

My wife and I walked 2.8 km to this place, after parking our car at Gunner's Cottage. Cars are not allowed beyond that point. During the walk, we visited the various attractions along the track. After our visit here, we walked back to our car. Although there is a shuttle bus for a fee, we chose to walk to enjoy the scenery and the physical exercise. We had packed our lunch and plenty of water.

What a grand experience this was to visit Fort Nepean. It is hard to believe that you can wander amongst old forts complete with a myriad of underground tunnels and sound effects - and all for free entry. The only 'cost' is a walk of 2.5 kms from the carpark after the entry into the Port Nepean National Park .... and it is an easy walk too!
I believe this is one of the best free experiences in Victoria and certainly the best in southern Victoria! It is also so rare these days to visit well-preserved historic sites like this. Give yourself a few hours as you don't want to rush a trip through this fascinating place. You should note that there are no facilities (like cafe or shops) there, so take your own food and water. But there are toilets.

Lovely walk, minus the biting flies, but the fort and tunnels were great with lots of information and history to take in.

If you are interested in sailing, there are plants of opportunities to encapsulate this breathtaking coastal waters on the Mornington Peninsula.
Pick up a boat with a good crews, leaving from Blairgowrie sailing swiftly along coastal waters to Sorrento and Quarantine Point.
If you are a sailing enthusiast, you won’t be disappointed!

If you love a hike, love historical sites, including where a sitting Prime Minister disappeared, love a view and particularly love it all for free, this is the place for you. There is a bit of walking involved if you want to see it all but a free shuttle bus can take you straight to Fort Nepean, missing out all the sites inbetween. A great half day out.

Decided to cycle to here from home, 65 Kms then you can cycle thru the park and right along to the Fort steps!
So I did and it’s beautiful... I spent 2 hours wandering around looking inside the fort made also up onto the parade ground and down to the old pump rooms... Really enjoyed and could feel the history.. First shot fired in anger from here in WW1... For the British forces.
I rode back along the track and into the Gunners House... Then back towards the Quarantine Area... So interesting I just walked around looking in windows and imaging arriving here in The late 1880’s.. Awesome!!
Highly recommend and Its all free 😀

Hi yes there is if you use the bus, it’s $20. You can walk out there it about 3km from memory. The bus ride was nice the driver was really friendly he even organised our B&B that night with a friend if his it was great also. But depending on your fitness it is a bit hilly, personally I’d take the bus
