hepburn springs to melbourne Page 6

From Hepburn Springs to Melbourne CBD, you’re looking at roughly 110–120 km by road and about 1 hr 30 min to 2 hrs, traffic and coffee stops permitting.

Fastest run is usually via Daylesford–Trentham to the M8/Western Freeway, or down through Woodend to the Calder—same difference, both tarmac and trees.

Public transport is doable: V/Line coach to Woodend or Ballan, then a train to Southern Cross, total around 2.5–3 hours if the connections play nice.

If you’re feeling sporty, cycling is about 115 km with plenty of hills; heroic, but your legs may lodge a formal complaint.
