Hepburn Mineral Springs Reserve

Great place for walks. Interesting bits of history about the various springs. Handpumps allow you to pump up the spring water. Which, to be honest, doesn't taste well: lots of sulphur and metallic flavours. Saw echidna and kookaburra.

Excellent bushwalking. It can be uneven and spooky so bear that in mind. Also toilets, bbqs in the main reserve area. We saw a bus full of nuns!

Worth a visit when you’re around Daylesford!
Beautiful park with a few mineral springs. A very unique and amazing experience trying all diferent kind of mineral/soda water.

Love coming here to fill bottles with spring water. Ground can be uneven so care needed. Lovely area with plenty of fauna.

Love this place, many family picnics had here over the years. Great to see the gardens and surrounding areas have been revamped, especially the mineral springs pumps. Unfortunately, however it is in great disrepair with broken concrete slabs now, unmowed lawns and extreme weedy garden beds on this occasion! There were construction fenced off areas which were left obviously for awhile before our visit. Bit sad to see the area in this state! I hope it is given the care and respect it deserves next time l visit from Melbourne.

Its a beautiful / peaceful place to visit.
Good walks.
Have a barby or picnic there.
A must place to visit

Lovely place and too fill up your bottles with spring water, tastes beautiful. Great walking tracks around and electric barbecues and plenty of tables and seats to use. Plus there is a lovely Cafe to go to.

I've been coming here for decades, has progressively improved over the years So the area is quite nice and the springs are easily accessible. I rated it 4 stars as there is one downside, maybe there needs to be a few signs as some visitors seem to think that the picnic tables are their own property to hijack with their raucous multitudinous family members and set up a spit roast!? Also, do we have to tell people to not be selfish? , as some people think that crates of bottles being filled like you are in a bottling plant is a reasonable thing to do!? Really it's just Rude and selfish. The day was not as peaceful as it has been. Perhaps the quieter times are during the week.

This place has a nice garden and kids playground. However not all springs have water. The taps fitted on the remaining springs which have water for filling up bottles to take away.

Plenty if things to do in this beautiful place, including lunch of Calamari and Rocket with a glass of local Riesling, at The Boathouse Restaurant overlooking the lake on a sunny day.

The spas were ok. There was mould growing on the roof, the windows were not clean, there were cobwebs outside everywhere and sand in the bottom of the pools. It's looking run down. Even a chair in one spar was missing a headrest making it unusable. Now I've been, I wouldn't go back.

Love this place, many family picnics had here over the years. Great to see the gardens and surrounding areas have been revamped, especially the mineral springs pumps. However, l have today and on many other occasions witnessed particular large family members come to the pumps with crate loads of empty large cannisters to fill up while they ignore me trying to fill a one litre bottle! Extremely greedy and exuding entitlement! I believe there needs to be a cap on how much or whether you're even allowed to remove that much home! "Police this now" otherwise there will NOT be any for anyone elses experience! I believe it's for a taste while there, not for home retainment!

Wyuna spring pump is broken, won't pump water. This is my favorite water so disappointed to travel so far and can't fill my bottles

A pleasant place for a picnic, walk, or a bike ride. Although I am not the biggest fan of the taste of the water, they seem to be a popular place to get a drink. Remember to bring along a spare bottle or two to fill them up. The playground is a very small playground with picnic benches and grass to enjoy a picnic.
Well worth the visit.

Loved trying the different mineral spring waters at the different pumps. Beautiful autumn leaves near cafe and bathhouse. Pleasant hike to Argyle Spring.

A wonderful place to have a picnic and to walk around. This place has a mineral water straight from thr tap

Interesting mineral springs and a pleasant walk if visiting the spa facilities. Dogs are welcome too, so it's a great family stop-off if in the area.

Water has an interesting taste to it, and would probably be better with some concentrated juice.

Walk takes about 15 minutes (leisurely) to the end of the path, although you can go much further on if desired.

Enjoy pure natural mineral water from the nature's gift that can be drawn by tourists from the earth's inside. Also, there is a nice Bush walk to other mineral springs. The water tastes like coke (sulfur taste) but healthy. Friendly country people use spring water for them says the water didn't cause any problems.

Nice but small. Would recommend going in off-peak times if possible as it can get very crowded and can even get crowded in the adults only area. I wish they limited the amount of people going in and go by a session booking as it’s so busy that there’s no room for intimacy if going with a significant other.
