The Oakleigh Historical Walk allows for a leisurely stroll through Oakleigh’s residential neighbourhood, taking in the rich history and culture of the Oakleigh activity centre.
Along your walk is Oakleigh’s ‘Avenue of Honour’ in memory of resident’s war service, the old Oakleigh Shire Offices and the Mechanics Institute.
Why not discover the oldest gravestone in the Oakleigh Memorial Park? Or find the commemorative stone of the first settlement in Oakleigh?
It is also the site of the first licensed premise - but we’ll let you find out what it is called.
Walk along Atherton Road and discover the array of continental cafes, fresh food suppliers and specialty shops.
