This tiny town 100 kilometres (62 miles) northwest of Melbourne was born from gold, with prospectors flocking in droves to this part of the state to seek their fortunes. Many struck it rich along the sheer ridge of the Great Dividing Range, not just in gleaming nuggets but also in discovering the region’s bubbling, mineral-rich natural springs, characteristic of Trentham’s neighbouring towns like Daylesford and Hepburn Springs. Also neighbouring is wildlife-rich Wombat State Forest, home to thundering waterfalls accessible via epic hiking and cycling trails.

When you’re not working up a sweat in bathhouses or in the great outdoors, Trentham itself offers a taste of yesteryear, its handsome historic buildings now home to boutiques and cafes, the leafy streetscape so pretty it has been the backdrop for a number of films. The rich, volcanic soil here nurtures postcard-perfect gardens as well as orchards of cherries, chestnuts, and olives — bring your stamina and your appetite, because outdoor adventures and culinary indulgences go hand in hand in Trentham.
