Murndal Reserve is a large 0.97 hectare open undeveloped reserve in a low density residential area. The reserve slopes steeply to a drain along the eastern boundary and adjoins VicRoads owned Eastern Freeway Open Space on the southern boundary.
This reserve has the potential to provide a link for local residents between Warrock Avenue and Murndal Drive and to the Mullum Mullum Linear Park via the EastLink Trail, but the 13 metre level difference between the Trail and Murndal Reserve could only be achieved with steps.
