Women’s Place of Peace is a small riverside garden along the Barwon River in Geelong, created by the Reclaim the Night Collective as a quiet space for reflection. It honours survivors of sexual assault and family violence, as well as women who have worked to protect the rights and safety of women and children. The area features a series of mosaic pavers set into the ground, each with symbolic designs representing themes of strength, creation, and connection.

Barwon River Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Barwon River Trail follows the Barwon River through Geelong on more than 20 kilometres of mostly sealed paths, connecting Fyansford to South Geelong. The trail runs along both sides of the river, passing through a mix of parkland, wetlands, and open riverbanks. Along the way, it links key spots like Queens Park, Balyang Sanctuary, Belmont Common, and Buckley Falls. You’ll also pass playgrounds, picnic areas, and quieter sections of river, with multiple access points and parking throughout, and no entry fee.

Barwon River lookout

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Barwon River runs for about 160 kilometres from the Otway Ranges to the coast at Barwon Heads, passing through Geelong as a wide, slow-moving waterway. Along this section, it flows gently between tree-lined banks and open parkland, with calm water and soft bends. This lookout is a great spot to pause and take in the view.
