Yellow Dog is a Parks Victoria picnic area in Victoria’s High Country, 2.6 km SE of Marysville.
Only five minutes from Stevenson Falls, the Yellow Dog picnic area is an excellent spot to stop and picnic or from here engage in some of the local walks before heading back to the bustle of the city. As the Steavenson River passes over the falls it flows on past the Yellow Dog picnic area. Located here is a shelter with picnic facilities and just a short walk to the nearby Tree Fern Gully Trail.
