Wilson Botanic Park, Botanical garden and park in Berwick, Victoria, Australia.

Wilson Botanic Park spans 100 acres of land with two lakes, Anniversary Lake and Basalt Lake, connected by paths and surrounded by diverse vegetation.

The property operated as a blue metal quarry from 1859 to 1976 by the Wilson family before they donated the land for public use.

The garden functions as an educational center with organized programs teaching visitors about plant species, gardening methods, and environmental conservation.

The park includes an information center, amphitheater, playground, education room, bird hide, barbecues, shelters, and multiple observation points.

Excavations revealed fossilized forest remnants from 22 million years ago, including some of the earliest known Eucalyptus specimens in the region.
