Access to the venue is also provided by catching a Pakenham line train to Hallam, a Glen Waverley line train to Glen Waverley or a Belgrave or Lilydale line train to Ringwood Station and taking a shuttle to the venue. Once at the park, all spectators will have to walk over uneven terrain to the course.
