Euroa: Calling All Bakers and History Buffs (and Anyone Who Wants to Escape Melbourne for a Bit)
So, you're itching for a little weekend getaway. The city lights are getting a bit much, and the only wildlife you've seen lately is a rogue pigeon trying to steal your lunch. You crave fresh air, friendly faces, and maybe even a decent pie.
Well, fret no more, because a charming little town called Euroa is beckoning! But before you jump in the car and blast your favourite tunes (queue the "Friends" road trip playlist), a crucial question arises: How far exactly is Euroa from Melbourne?
The Great Distance Debate: Kilometers or "Crikey - That's a fair chuck?"
Tip: Keep your attention on the main thread.
Fear not, adventurers! The distance between Melbourne and Euroa is a breeze, depending on how you measure "breeze."
- In the land ofVegemite and fairy bread (Australia, for those playing at home) - it's roughly 160-ish kilometers. That's about the length of a decent Sunday drive with a stop or two for Tim Tams and a servo snag (don't ask, just trust us).
- For our friends across the Pacific (or anyone who prefers miles) - we're talking around 100 miles. That's close enough to a day trip, but far enough to feel like a real escape.
So, how long will it take to get there?

- By train: Settle in for a scenic 2-ish hour journey. Watch the countryside roll by, sip on a cuppa tea, and pretend you're on your way to visit relatives in the outback (bonus points for a wide-brimmed hat).
