Welcome to your guide to exploring Daylesford, Hepburn Springs, Trentham, the Macedon Ranges, Kyneton, Castlemaine and surrounds.

We acknowledge and extend our appreciation for the Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Peoples, the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land and waterways of our region.

We pay our respects to leaders and Elders past, present and future. We express our gratitude in the sharing of this land, our sorrow for the personal, spiritual and cultural costs of that sharing and our hope that we may walk forward together in harmony and in the spirit of healing.
