Practical details
Why it's worth checking out
Grimes Reserve sits on Maribyrnong Boulevard in Footscray, one of Melbourne's inner-western suburbs by the river. A strong 4.7 rating from 27 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved green space.
The appeal is lovely green space by the water — a reserve with paths and open surrounds along the Maribyrnong River, a genuine favourite for a walk, a picnic or simply relaxing by the river. Its location makes it an easy and pleasant addition to a day out.
