Here are a few ideas for things to do and see in Daylesford, Vic :
**Daylesford has a number of very popular day spas - Our top popular picks are The Hepburn Bath House and Spa, The Mineral Spa, and The Lake House Spa - You can find treatments that include steam baths, manicure and pedicure, body wraps, exfoliation and facial massage. You may even get the chance to try some of Daylesford Vic's award-winning spa products from local providers and natural therapists.
**Take a walk in our many national parks and trails all in the foothills of the Great Dividing Range. Complete with running waterfalls Lake Daylesford is a great place to start. Take a winding loop around the Locarno Mineral Springs and be sure to take some empty water bottles so you can collect and compare mineral water available to hand pump along the trails. Some mineral springs are naturally carbonated! Another favourite long hiking track is around the Dry Diggings Track off Hepburn-Newstead Rd and out towards the blow hole.
** You'll find amazing wildflower species, kangaroos, echidnas and possibly even emu birds too. For bird lovers, watch the swarms of Corella's, Rosellas, Kookaburras and Cockatoos fly about the lake and district. Cara is also known to host the Pied Currawong, Grey Shrikethrush and some guests have even spied a Yellow-tailed Black-Cockatoo and a Gang-gang Cockatoo.
**There are plenty of other activities on offer, including camping, rock climbing, riding, golf and kayaking. The two main caravan parks offer a hive of activities for visitors too! Families traveling with kids should check out the Daylesford community Park Play ground and Skate park on Standridge st, its close by to Thomas's lookout too, The park itself has a great adventure playground, and lots of wide open spaces.
**If you are game to go off road and its not too wet Lerderdeg track is a short mostly dirt track close by that might be fun to explore in the family 4x4 too. There are plenty of similar off road tracks around Daylesford, most of which are accessible via online maps so you can plan your adventure.
**If food wine and art are you thing, you need not travel far - Passing clouds is a must see winery or you can place your food and wine tour needs in the hands of Daylesford Wine Tours. Travelrite international also has a number of garden, food, beer and wine tours too.

Getting Around:
If you are visiting for a 2-night weekend trip, Daylesford can be busy with more traffic than usual during the peak Friday/Saturdays and school holidays - as it is a very popular holiday and day trip location.
Check out Bridport streets off-street parking if you are driving up to the supermarket, there is also a thoroughfare from the supermarket to the main street if parking is an issue. Central Springs Rd and Duke Street also offer off-street parking close by with a short walk back to the action.
Hepburn is bicycle-friendly, bringing them to Daylesford is a great idea if you're keen on an active weekend of exploration or even a lazy stroll and coast around the lake
