点评:This lookout offers sweeping, elevated views of Port Phillip Bay, the coastline and, on clear days, the Melbourne city skyline, Mount Macedon, and the You Yangs.But how do you find it, so if you are hiking... you will find it on the Arthurs Seat Summit Circuit Walk. If you are like many others, you will wonder why you would walk when you could drive. :)
If you are doing the scenic drive of Arthurs Seat Road, this will be the first lookout you come to as you head down towards the beach if you have been visiting the EAGLE. One thing to note, is that on your way down it's on the same side of travel, so it's much safer to stop at the lookouts on your way down... rather than on the way up where you have to cross the middle line and risk colliding with oncoming traffic. There is an area to stop to enjoy the view... this will not take much time but it is worth stopping for.
Based on local history records for the Dromana area on the Mornington Peninsula, the first European owner of the property in that area was George Chapman. The property, known as "Seawinds," later became part of the Arthurs Seat State Park.
翻译:这个观景台视野开阔,可以俯瞰菲利普港湾、海岸线,晴朗的日子里还能远眺墨尔本的城市天际线、马其顿山和尤扬山脉。那么,如何才能找到它呢?如果您正在徒步旅行……您会在亚瑟王座山顶环线步道上找到它。如果您和许多人一样,可能会想,既然可以开车,为什么还要步行呢?:)
如果您沿着风景优美的亚瑟王座公路自驾游,如果您之前参观过EAGLE,那么在下山前往海滩的途中,这将是您遇到的第一个观景台。需要注意的是,下山时观景台位于车辆行驶的同一侧,因此在下山途中停车观景台比上山途中停车观景台要安全得多,因为上山途中您需要越过中间线,可能会与迎面而来的车辆相撞。这里有一个可以停车欣赏美景的区域……虽然不会占用太多时间,但绝对值得驻足欣赏。
根据莫宁顿半岛德罗曼纳地区的当地历史记录,该地区第一位欧洲土地所有者是乔治·查普曼。这处名为“海风庄园”的房产后来成为亚瑟王座州立公园的一部分。
