| The Macedon Ranges is a vibrant growing tourism region, located right on the city's doorstep, less than an hour's drive from Melbourne along the Calder Freeway (or 30 minutes from Melbourne Airport).
The region is dotted with a delightful mix of thriving businesses, relaxed villages and heritage charm.
It offers a variety of attractions from the grand landscapes of Hanging Rock and Mount Macedon to the historic townships of Gisborne, Kyneton Lancefield, Macedon, Malmsbury, Riddells Creek, Romsey and Woodend. Our award-wining cool-climate wine competes on the world stage, with boutique cellar doors and friendly winemakers waiting to greet you with a tasting glass in hand.
Our eateries are the envy of the food industry - just check the latest The Age Good Food Guide! Talented local chefs use regional produce to create menus full of mouthwatering delicacies.
There is a range of accommodation, including welcoming B&Bs and country houses, and plenty of unique opportunities for retail therapy.
Or stock your basket with delicious, plentiful regional produce available at farm gates and regular farmers' markets.
Our icons such as Hanging Rock, Mount Macedon and the Memorial Cross provide such beauty and historical significance that you'll be enchanted at first sight.
Add in an international-standard arts and culture community and magnificent gardens, and it's easy to see why Macedon Ranges is one of the fastest-growing tourism regions in the state.
