Moved here not long ago.Before i move in i didnt know much about fawkner. After a week we slowly settle down managing our stuff,buying furniture and everything.And i thought of going for a walk and find few places like Smith Reserve,great place for kids, older people and families. U can spend time in library,smiming,excersise for fitness there and football stadium just behind. Just be carefull in the carpark sometimes rough people doing Burn Outs.
JUKES road is quiet popular. U can go for a shopping plenty more in bonwick street, Indian grocery, Veg market,veg and meat,Chinese store, IGA,bank,Post office,pharmacy,kebab shop, Cafe,and plenty morehere, But be careful there lots of cars going in and out u can park behind the street.Straight from jukes road u can go to the Most famous Merri Creek Trail, great for running,walking,meditation in the morning near small river,lots of open space there in Babaji.Moomba park.be careful of the snakes or Kangaroo.donot walk near trail at night.Other popular street are Anderson road,Major road,lynch st,Lorne st,William st,Macbryde st. You can go to the Buddhist temple its peaceful and lots of flowers and trees variety there.In sydney road from coburg north to Western freeway on your left u can find plenty of stores for Automotive,carpet,KFC,Pots,furniture and i am yet to explore coz i never walk there because of the busy road and lots of noise. Memorial park(Cemetry)near there, further up Campbelfield plaze u can shop in Aldi,Kmart,coles,office work, chinese store,And Chemist, Amart, Hungry jacks, Macdonalds toy shop near by.
For travel use fawkner station, and Gowrie station.driving to the city Use Sydney rd and avoid during the pick hour, try Lygon street or pascoe vale road.M80 freeway is close by, easy to go west and north east suburb.U have Hume freeway to go further north.Neighbour suburbs like Broadmedows,Coburg,glenroy,hadfield,Reservoir preston easily accessible by camp road, sydney rd,mohneys rd,hilton st,boundry rd,gaffiny st.
People are nice and friendly.u can see Lots of grand pa and ma doing gardening in their yard which looks lovely while walking.Be aware of the junkies coming from Dallas or campbelfield doing bike burnouts,other then that every thing looks precious.We dont have much for dining but i prefer cooking at home and i dont need nightclub near by me.i can go to coburg or brunswick for that.
For shoping all in one i go to Broadmedows central,Westfield airport west,or Essendon DFo which are 10-15 min drive.few Schools,child care aged care,merri health,fawkner health center ,pathology are near by Jukes road and sydney road. Suburb is safe and good for family and kids, great for walking.i have got plenty more to see here so let you know if anything new.
