11 There's a lot to like about Victoria's country towns - an unhurried pace, that country
air - and many are only a short drive from Melbourne. Head up the Calder Hwy to the his-
toric goldfield towns of Kyneton, Castlemaine and Maldon ( Click here ) , where grand 19th-
century buildings, galleries and markets will keep you occupied for days. Day-trip to
Daylesford and Hepburn Springs ( Click here ) for relaxing spa treatments and cafes. In the
northeast, gorgeous Beechworth ( Click here ) , Yackandandah ( Click here ) and Bright ( Click
here ) are year-round delights.
