Montalto Sculpture Trail

About

Montalto is home to an extraordinary collection of contemporary sculptures showcasing the work of many leading Australian artists. Twenty of these pieces were winners of the annual Montalto Sculpture Prize, with a further fifteen acquired over time.

From 2003 to 2023, the evolution of form, material and scale across the collection has reflected the dynamic and ever-changing nature of the art form itself. Today, this permanent display represents two decades of sculpture at Montalto, with curated movements designed to reward visitors with a rich and engaging journey through the landscape.

The Montalto Sculpture Trail remains free for all visitors to enjoy. It stands as a lasting celebration of creativity, community and connection to place, welcoming everyone to experience these remarkable works year after year.

The trail

• Approx 1km and suitable for most ages and abilities
• Meanders over grassy lawns and gravel pathways, through vines and wetland boardwalks — undulating and reasonably steep in sections
• Benches dotted along the walk for a well-earned rest as you go; on hot days the wetlands provide a welcome cool shelter
• We recommend wearing walking shoes, and gumboots through the wet winter period
• Allow one hour to enjoy the Sculpture Trail across the estate

The grounds at Montalto are open 7 days, 11am - 5pm. Free for all visitors.
