When is the best time to go to Black Hill?

The best time to visit Black Hill, Victoria, Australia, is during the spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) months. These seasons offer the most pleasant weather for exploring the area.

This period is excellent for enjoying the scenic drives around the region or visiting local wineries without the intense heat of summer or the chill of winter.

Room wasnt available until a little after 2. Parking was limited car park was all filled up when we arrived back to hotel no where to park. We ended up leaving at 1130 pm to go back home.
