Ballarat Region

Ballarat’s gold rush heritage is evident in grand boulevards, ornate buildings and the living history museum Sovereign Hill. The city also boasts a lakeside botanic garden and thriving arts scene. Locals stroll along a secluded section of Lake Wendouree where swans nest and visit a laneway café that roasts its own coffee in a refurbished stable.
