| Established in the 1860s, the 10.4 hectare site is one of Victoria’s finest regional botanic gardens. Perched on the summit of an extinct volcano, the location provides excellent views over Daylesford and the surrounding countryside. Prized for their beauty and tranquillity, the gardens retain their gracious 19th century character. Features include wide expanses of lawn, shaded picnic areas, driving and walking paths through tall avenues of giant conifers and stately elms. The view from the top of the Pioneers Lookout Tower is panoramic. The gardens contain an outstanding collection of rare and notable specimens, many of which are included on the National Trust Register of Significant Trees. During Autumn the Begonia House has a magnificent display of colourful begonias. A brochure on the features of the gardens can be obtained from the Daylesford Regional Visitor Information Centre. Open dawn to dusk, free admission |
