Most of people think about springs and SPA resorts when hearing "Hepburn" or "Daylesford", yes, Daylesford is "SPA centre of Australia", but SPA isn't the only thing Hepburn/Daylesford can offer, Hepburn Regional Park is a big GREEN area, offering many walking tracks. (Dogs are expected to be on-leash)
(Yes, Hepburn Regional Park features springs as well)
(Sign at the car park, the car park is roomy)
(the walk we did today, map from Park Victoria website)
The walk itself was relaxing, refreshing and satisfying. even though no heartbreaking view. We had many chances to study the plants, and trees, and birds. We also met Little Jonny and Miss Minne, 2 funny cute "creepy" crawlings like caterpillars.

(Miss Minnie)
There're quite some spiky plants throughout the track, guess it's the way the plants protect themselves. You might want to wear long pants and long sleeve tops to avoid the cuts.
(These plants are very popular in this park, mind your bare skin)

Suggest you to go to Daylesford Visitor Centre to get a copy of the map. The staff there are very helpful and friendly. The visitor centre is located at 98 Vincent St, Daylesford.
