Hepburn Springs Daylesford

Magnificent waterfalls plunging over incredible rock formations are just one of many reasons to visit Hepburn Springs Daylesford.

Daylesford, Hepburn and Hepburn Springs are three small towns so interconnected and interdependent on one another, that most are not quite sure where one begins and the other ends. Set within the largest concentration of natural mineral springs anywhere in the world, this enchanting area has become a must see to everyone visiting the Victoria area of Australia.

Along with historic parks, Natural Reserves, bushwalks, mountain biking trails and fabulous forested mountain scenery, you will find some of the most breathtaking waterfalls nature ever created.

SAILORS FALLS

Located in the Hepburn Regional Park, Sailors Falls is created as water falls over incredible rock formations stretching beyond a scenic alcove filled with beautiful brush, flowers and other rock formations. Easily seen from the roadside as you are driving through the Park, Sailors Falls is one of the many waterfalls around the area.

THE BLOWHOLE

A man-made tunnel on Sailors Creek was created generations ago during the mid-nineteenth century. The Blowhole created by this tunnel is a spectacular site to behold when the creek is flowing fully. The Blowhole is a monumental testament to the fact that man and nature can live together in harmony without one damaging the other. It is also a must see when you are in the Hepburn Regional Park.

TRENTHAM FALLS

The single steepest drop waterfall in the area can be found deep inside the Wombat State Forest, a short distance from Daylesford and Hepburn Springs. Formed by rapidly cooling molten lava well over five million years ago, the lava spread through the Coliban River Valley. The Trentham Falls descends over basalt rock face directly onto quartz gravel over 32 meters below.

Fantastic picnicking facilities with both the Falls and forest surrounding the area makes this an incredible place to spend a few hours or the entire day. For those who enjoy hiking, a number of walking tracks are designed for the hikers enjoyment as well as the protection of the natural vegetation throughout the Reserve.

Regardless of purpose you originally planned your trip to Hepburn Springs Daylesford, leaving is not an option until you have explored a little. Be pampered at any of the day spas or Resort Spas available. Experience the extraordinary cuisine with a glass or bottle of the increasingly popular wines of the region. Taste the heavenly natural mineral waters offered free of charge at every Reserve and Park. But whatever your reasons for your visit, do not cheat yourself of the opportunity to experience the awe-inspiring wonder of the Waterfalls that are so close by.
