Hanging Rock, Victoria was made famous in Peter Weir's 1975 fictional feature film "Picnic at Hanging Rock" (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x05QuAhpq6o ). This is one of the scenic views from the summit of this volcanic outcrop. Hanging Rock is also famous for its country horse racing (on New Year's Day and Australia/Invasion/Survival Day (26th January). Nowadays in summer, it is also a venue for big name outdoor rock concerts.
Hanging Rock Country Races - New Year's Day 2011. The following year kangaroos on the race course stopped the event. A cheap and exciting family day out which should be combined with a picnic lunch. Come early to secure a place by the racecourse.
Interesting In 2014 the Rolling Stones were scheduled to play a night concert (30 March) at Hanging Rock as part of their "14 On Fire" tour. The death of Mick Jagger's partner, L'Wren Scott, resulted in the postponement of the entire tour. The tour was rescheduled and resumed in Adelaide on October 25, 2014. The Hanging Rock concert was rescheduled to take place on Saturday, November 8, 2014, but Rolling Stones lead Mick Jagger cancelled the concert due to a throat infection.

A very cool hotel in a great location, right on the waterfront. Friendly and helpful staff, clean and well appointed room, AMAZING gym, great bar, cafe and restaurant. Sadly we didn’t have time to experience the spa but it looked lovely! We would definitely stay again :).
