Glenlyon Recreation Reserve

Fantastic little grassy hidden away gem, able to get natural mineral water directly from the spring and if you're lucky you may see some ponies running around the track, lots of kangaroos in the early evening

Well worth stopping here just to taste the mineral water! Unlike many mineral springs in the area, this has a pleasant, refreshing taste.
If you have more time to investigate, look for the walking trail (Glenlyon Biolink Walk) by the tiny Loddon River. Though indistinct in parts due to fallen debris and overgrowth, the path is marked with signs showing historical activity at numerous points. The trail leads towards the high road bridge on the Malmsbury Road C316, just down hill from the General Store. However, there is currently no direct exit up and onto the bridge from below. You will need to retrace your steps to a point where the track turns left up hill, where it (as Loddon Drive) joins the Malmsbury Road about 100 meters on the far side of the bridge. Walk down to the bridge taking in the information board and continue up the hill to the General Store.

A large open space made this a great overnight stop for our motorhome. Toilets and tap water available. There's a spring water supply in the neighbouring picnic Reserve. As this is a pony club site check for Event days to avoid lots of horse floats.

New Years Day is a great Family day out.

Beautiful little town.

Camped over night and the kids were able to ride their bikes safely around the race track. Lovely locals walking through cheers the kids on.

Only improvement would be showers but still excellent peaceful place for one night away from the city.

Great stopover for a small donation

A lovely place to take a break ⛍

Lovely rural setting. Free camping area with toilets. Fenced playground. Equestrian area. Plenty of walking tracks. Kangaroos everywhere.

My favourite place in Daylesford. Picnic area, bbq, river with dam, caravan park with charging points. Most of all the nature and wild life 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Beautiful place, peace and silence. Toilets available. Mineral spring water, regarding the test some people said the best spring water in the area.

We do have great people living here but we also have 5 witches who think they own the town but this is going to change.

Great place for a picnic fenced playground walking distance to a mineral spring and much quieter than Daylesford

Antiques market in this weekend. Lovely maintained reserve with clean amenities. Also, a shaded children's play area.

I love this place. As a traveller, it has lots of space for camping. It is green and fresh.

Nice and quiet, facilities good.
