Anzac Hill and the Turkish cannon
 The lookout by the "Gallipoli gun" provides a good lookout over the town and is a popular place for artists and photographers who want to capture a view of the town. The gun is of German manufacture and was apparently captured in Palestine and shipped to Australia at the end of the war. It was installed in its present location as a memorial to the ANZAC troops.

Brewery and Butts Reserve
A picnic site and shelter at the start of the road to Mount Tarrangower. The area was the location of a spring that provided an early water supply for the town and the site of the Maldon Brewery. 

Denominational School
The building was erected in 1856 at a cost of £572 and was used as a school house and meeting place for the Church of England. It was partly demolished by a storm in 1857 and rebuilt in 1862. The stonework is believed to have been done by W Bowes and Sons. It functioned as a Church School until 1873 when it became the Maldon State School. The school closed in 1875 with the opening of the Maldon State School in High Street.

Derby Hill
The hill on the western side of Main street, overlooks the town, and on the walking track around the hill can still be seen the remains of several mines and a crushing battery.

Grave of Elisabeth Anset and son
The isolated grave in Chapel Street South is that of Elizabeth Anset (nee Burton) aged 27 and her 14 day old son, who died on 19 July 1854. Before the Maldon Cemetery was established the area around the grave site was the location of the Wesleyan Church graveyard.

Lake Cairn Curran
The reservoir to the west of Maldon dams the Loddon River and takes its name from the 100,000 acre original pastoral run Cairn Curran that was established in 1840. The construction of the reservoir was started in 1947 and was completed in 1956 using large numbers of European migrants. The water from the reservoir is used for irrigation and the 4,800 acre facility is also used for recreational boating and fishing. 

Long Gully
The gully runs along the rear of the shops, on the Western side of Main Street. The gully was the site of the first discovery of alluvial gold in 1853 and at the peak of the gold rush was worked by an estimated 20,000 diggers for several kilometres of its length.

Maldon Cemetery
The cemetery's first interments were recorded in 1856 and the cemetery was gazetted in 1860. The lodge was built around 1866 for use as the caretaker's house and the rotunda is thought to have been built around 1900 to shelter mourners. There have been over 5000 burials, including 121 Chinese. There is also a large brick Chinese funeral oven of unusual design that was for the burning of offerings to the spirits of the dead.

Mount Tarrangower and lookout tower
The Mount is 571 metres above sea-level and gives a 360° view to a distance over 60 kilometres. The 24 metre lookout tower is the poppet head from the Comet Mine in Bendigo and was brought to Maldon in 1924. The sections of the tower were brought by rail and then by horse drawn wagons to the Mount. The tower is lit each year at the time of the Easter Festival and is visible up to 60 kilometres away. 

Reservoirs - original town reservoirs
Lack of water was always a problem in Maldon and its goldfields. In its early years, water was provided by several local springs and by water carted from the Loddon. The town's first natural catchment reservoir was built in 1861 at a cost of £1,385 at the Western end of Adair Street. The first reservoir leaked badly and a second reservoir was constructed in 1876 at the end of Fountain Street. This second reservoir supplied Maldon's water until 1884 when water was piped in from Malmsbury. A pump was installed in 1896 in Long Gully to pump the water to a retaining basin above the town.

Victorian Goldfields Steam Train
The Maldon Railway Station and the rail line to Castlemaine were completed in 1884. The line ran 16 km to Castlemaine and crossed 13 bridges and at its peak ran three times a day. A branch line to Shelbourne was constructed in 1891. The line was eventually closed in 1976 and was taken over by the non-profit association Victorian Goldfields Railway who now run it as a tourist attraction. The aim is to repair the track and bridges to allow the train to run through to Castlemaine.
