A sense of place

Life around
the river.

Maribyrnong is both a suburb and the name of a wider municipality in Melbourne’s inner west. This guide starts with the suburb and its river setting, then looks outward to the surrounding neighbourhoods.

From open space to local streets, our focus is useful context for residents and visitors: where a place fits, what there is to explore and what to check before you go.
