Daylesford, Victoria is a premier spa and resort town 1.5 hours North West of Melbourne. Its location atop rock strata and volcanic basins has provided the region with the highest concentration of mineral springs in Australia. It’s the mineral springs that Daylesford and surrounding areas such as Hepburn Springs, are famous for, spawning a vast number of day spas and natural therapy centres.

Victorians and especially Melbournians find Daylesford the perfect destination for day trips and weekend getaways to escape their busy lifestyles, with plenty of opportunities to relax, rejuvenate, shop and dine.

Beyond the numerous day spas, Daylesford offers;

  • Beautiful gardens and natural scenery;
  • Restored architecture and a European character that dates back to the early Swiss-Italian settlers and gold rush era;
  • Fresh local produce and wine;
  • Award winning restaurants; and
  • Cafes, markets, galleries, antiques and craft store.
