Malmsbury, a small town located in 95 kilometers to the north-west from Melbourne, was founded some time in 19^th century and still has some old buildings.

This place can be easily found by following A79 road – Calder Hwy.

We found that the main attraction of this place is an old Viaduct – the oldest and longest (in its’ time) stone bridge in Australia.

Bridge across Coliban River, was built in 1860-1862, has 25 meters in height, 152 meters long and consists of five 18-meter spans. Bridge is still serving its’ original purpose – part of the railway from Melbourne to Bendigo.

To see this 19^th century architectural beauty, go to the small and cosy botanic garden next to the bridge and, if you’re lucky and there is water in the river, you may see a nice picture with viaduct reflected in small pond.
