Tourism Victoria
During the gold rushes of the 1850s, travellers sought refuge from mud, bogs and bushrangers at the 'wood's end' around Five Mile Creek, where a town eventually grew. In the late 1800s Woodend became a resort town, and its lovely gardens and proximity to spectacular natural sights, such as Hanging Rock and Mt Macedon, still make it a popular daytrip and weekend getaway for visitors from Melbourne.
