Cool, thanks for the pointers.

I sometimes head up to the Hamer Arboretum just outside Olinda. You get great views to the North and the East - very handy for most of the summer meteor showers. To the South and West you're starting to hit Melbourne's light-dome.

Any public clearing or reserve off the road and away from private property north of Yarra Glen or Healesville would be better for you. Just get onto Google Maps and browse around the area for a suitable site - that's what I do, though good sites are getting harder to find.
