Dunlop sits on Silurian‑age volcanic rocks, mainly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite, with patches of grey tuff from the Laidlaw Volcanics in the south‑west. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge, bringing in green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite of the Hawkins Volcanics.
The suburb is named after Lieutenant Colonel Sir Ernest Edward “Weary” Dunlop, a celebrated Australian surgeon known for his leadership while a prisoner of war during World II. His legacy is honoured through the suburb’s name.
Dunlop offers around eight children’s playgrounds across the suburb, as well as numerous parks with walking and cycling paths. The nearby nature reserve and ponds provide additional outdoor recreation opportunities.
