Our Story

Welcome To Arthurs Seat Eagle

At Arthurs Seat Eagle, we provide a gondola ride experience offering breathtaking views of the Mornington Peninsula. Our focus is on community, sustainability, and delivering a high-quality visitor experience. We are committed to maintaining an inclusive and eco-friendly environment that enhances both the experience for our guests and the preservation of the natural surroundings.

Sustainable

At Arthurs Seat Eagle, we prioritise sustainable practices to reduce our environmental impact. Our gondolas, manufactured by Doppelmayr, are known for their high safety standards and efficient design. The system uses a diesel hydraulic drive with an independent generator to maximise power efficiency, helping to lower our environmental footprint. Additionally, the gondolas operate with minimal noise, allowing guests to enjoy a quiet, immersive experience as they travel through the treetops.

Environmental Stewardship

We incorporate sustainability into all aspects of our operations. The oil in our gearboxes and hydraulic systems is filtered and recycled to minimise waste. Solar panels on each gondola power the radios and emergency lights, highlighting our use of renewable energy. To support community emergency planning, we maintain a firebreak down the mountain, and green waste from these areas is mulched and used in our garden beds to conserve water. Additionally, our Summit and Base Stations provide the only bins in the State Park, promoting proper waste disposal and recycling.

Community Engagement

At Arthurs Seat Eagle, we prioritise community involvement. We hire local residents when possible and feature local produce and artisan products in our retail stores. Most of our cafe suppliers are local, and we support various charities, non-profits, and community groups. We welcome collaborations on community events and initiatives, so please feel free to contact us with proposals. Along the gondola line, you’ll see a planted koala habitat, created in partnership with Mornington Peninsula Koala Conservation to help protect local wildlife.
