                                                                                                                   Daylesford-Hepburn Springs in Victoria (Australa) is a healing “sacred site” with few peers. The early Swiss-Italian migrants who first discovered Daylesford and its surrounds during the gold-rush of the late 1800s stumbled upon a place long known by the local Aboriginal tribes for its therapeutic qualities. Set amidst the biggest springs complex in Australia (with no fewer than 72 mineral springs), the adjoining villages of Daylesford, Hepburn and Hepburn Springs now attract visitors from across the globe.
