Spring truly is a feast for the senses in Daylesford and the Macedon Ranges. Visit gorgeous open gardens, popping with spring colour, or head along to one of our many flower and garden festivals. Explore cool-climate wineries at Budburst, discover talented local artists at art exhibitions or join the fun at a new mountain biking festival, plus lots more.

Melina Goddard and Annie Mulkearns, the duo behind Mount Macedon Tours give us the low-down on the history of Mount Macedon and explain why it has been a drawcard for garden lovers for over 150 years. They also give the inside word on which gardens are open this spring.

The rain through the wetter months of the year, May through to November, ensures our waterfalls and reservoirs look truly spectacular.
