Mineral Waters Flow

Hepburn Springs Reserve
Hepburn and Dylesford being nearly as one there are tips on both pages for this area.
I will gradually sort them. At the moment to get a overall view of both sides of town check out both pages if you need info.

Over many years Hepburn and Daylesford have been known for the Mineral Springs.
Some come to fill their bottles from the springs. They say it has qualities that help keep aches and pains away. At the Hepburn reserve you can take a cup and try the water.
Over the last few years, it has become very popular to have Mineral Water baths, massage and beauty therapies.A wonderful way to rejuvinate from the hussle and bussle of city life.
There a numerous Day Spa's to choose from.
Not Just Lavender

Things to do, places to visit

Once you have unpacked your bags you can set out and discover Hepburn Springs.Around the Hepburn area you have the Lavander farm. Here you can browse in the Barn for goodies to take home, have a light meal at the cafe', walk through the beautiful Gardens,or sit on a rug and take in the aroma of the freshly picked lavender.
During the year they have special days of music or craft shows.

The Hepburn reserve is surrounded by beautiful trees and there you can use a BBQ to cook lunch, walk around the surrounding area or just sit on the grass and read a book.

Bush walking tracks are everywhere, you can get the maps at the Daylesford Information Centre.

 If you have too much to drink, this pub has a courtesy bus to take you home. If you ring the pub beforehand, they will pick you up and take you there.
