Aradale Asylum

On top of the hill on the outskirts of Ararat, the Aradale Ayslum is an abandoned psychiatric hospital. You can only visit on a tour (1½ to two hours), which will take you through the site's fairly grisly history from its opening in 1860 until its closure in 1998. Ghost tours are also held here.
