About Forest Hill

Forest Hill sits in postcode 3131, about 20 km east of the CBD in the City of Whitehorse. Canterbury Road runs east to west through the suburb and connects it to Nunawading and Box Hill. The main retail destination is Forest Hill Chase Shopping Centre on Canterbury Road, which serves residents from across the surrounding area. The suburb is predominantly residential with low density housing and sits close to Deakin University on Burwood Highway to the south. Forest Hill does not have a train station. The closest rail connections are Nunawading and Mitcham on the Lilydale Line, each a short drive away. SmartBus route 902 travels through the suburb along Springvale Road, providing north to south cross suburban connections. The lack of walking distance to a station means taxis are the preferred option for airport runs, late night returns, and travel with luggage. Silver Taxi covers airport transfers from Forest Hill with fares from $109 to $120. The drive to Melbourne Airport typically takes around 40 to 50 minutes via the Eastern Freeway and Metropolitan Ring Road. To arrange a pickup, call 0412 456 588.
