lesaandbill Says: We went biking and hiking around the area...and this was one of the prettiest falls we've seen in Victoria. It wasn't crowded and the whole area around it...was amazing. Definitely check it out if you're in the area...
lesaandbill Says: You can fill up your water jug with the mineral water...so Bill thought he'd fill it to the brim...to find out it wasn't like the sparkling mineral he thought it would be. It's fun to give it a taste...but I think you have to get acquired to the taste. It's pretty neat to...

lesaandbill Says: Daylesford and Hepburn Springs are known for their spas....While my husband went golfing ...I went "spa"ing...I was not able to afford much when we came here...so I opted for the Ovada Spa right on Main Street. I was pretty impressed by the website, so I decided to give it a...
lesaandbill Says: It was a rainy day...but we still wanted to get out and explore. The Covenant Gallery was a nice break to the day. It was interesting and not your normal gallery. It was multi level floored..and was the old convent with a ton of different rooms, showing the old...and also...

Palais Theatre: Sleepy Town's Local Nightlife
ATXtraveler Says: I was quite surprised to find this spot in a sleepy little town like Hepburn Springs. Upon arrival in Hepburn, we were meant to meet Anne12 down in town at the Red Star cafe, but first we stopped into the local hot-spot at the Palais Theatre. By hot spot, I mean that there...
The Palais: Hepburn Springs' Coolest Night Spot

Take a drive out to Hepburn Springs
ATXtraveler Says: Hepburn is a little ways out of Melbourne, and public transportation has not quite made it out. Although you would be fine walking or biking in between locations once in Hepburn, you will probably still need to rely on a vehicle to get out to the town.Also, if you want to...

Helpfulness
The Bull Boar sausage has been a popular meat with the locals for many years.
Original recipes that have been handed down from generation to generationand are held close to their chests, they are secret!!!
The decendants of the Swiss/Italians in the area were the makers of these sausages.
As the name suggest they are made of Bull and Boar, with loads of garlic, red wine and other secret spices.
You can buy them at the two butcher shops in Daylesford.
These sausages can be boiled, grilled, BBQ or you can hang them up to dry.
WARNING......if one person in the family eats them......ALL should:)))

ATXtraveler Says: Thanks to St. Patrick's work in Ireland, and his subsequent trip over to Wales to talk about his triumph in all of the pubs throughout Great Britian, there are still some Welsh that are dearly afraid of the slithering serpents. On our trip to Hepburn, we met one such Welsh...
