Daylesford tours

Located 45km from Ballarat, Daylesford and it's sister town Hepburn Springs are two of Victoria's best spa towns. While digging for gold in the gold rush days it was discovered that there was something else buried deep in this area, mineral springs. Daylesford is now a big attraction for upmarket city folk who want to enjoy spa treatments and relaxation, as well as indulge in fine food and wine. Daylesford is also popularly known as the gay and lesbian country capital, and plays host to Australia's only gay and lesbian country festival every March.
