Around Melbourne
Spa Towns
The delightful town of Daylesford and its spa-town sister Hepburn Springs lie just a short
trip from Melbourne. Their easy-to-access lakes, creeks and natural mineral springs inspire
indulgence and relaxation.
Local Produce
Just an hour or so from Melbourne lie two excellent wine and foodie zones: the Yarra Val-
ley, famed for its hills, vineyards and microbreweries; and the Macedon Ranges, where you
can enjoy excellent local produce at charming country eateries.
Mountains
Rise above Melbourne's eastern urban sprawl and drive through the towering forests of the
Dandenong Ranges. Here, impossibly tall trees tower over quaint little settlements where
garden walks and Devonshire teas draw in-the-know Melburnians.
