Eltham Lower Park, Victoria, Australia
Eastern Region Adult Riders Club
Nestled deep in the Diamond Valley but only half an hour’s drive from Melbourne CBD, Eastern Region Adult Riders aims to support all levels of rider from beginner to advanced and beyond.
An update on our grounds – horses are here to stay!
Background: Nillumbik Council have been given a Federal Government Grant to upgrade the facilities at Eltham Lower Park. The original plan was to convert the sand arenas into a dog park but thanks to the outpouring of support from the community as well as the hard work of our members, we have been able to maintain access to our home grounds to continue using for equestrian activities.
In even better news – the council has allocated funds to upgrade the existing facilities with new surfacing, yards and fencing in progress. These works have commenced as of November 2024, and we cannot wait to put the finished grounds to use!
The Aims of ERARC
