Creswick Home of Forestry
Creswick township was named after its first settlers: John, Henry and Charles Creswick way back in 1842. Creswick today is relaxed and unpretentious. Quiet and unfussed it provides an ideal opportunity to indulge in active or passive interests.
Take a walk along some of the many bush tracks that wander through the old diggings. Visit picturesque St. Georges Lake, or meander through Koala Park. Enjoy a picnic at Slaty Creek, or better still, bring a gold pan and enjoy some fossicking. Creswick is a wonderful town that is big on hospitality.
Join in the sporting activities of the area, golf, tennis at historic Park Lake, swim in the Calembeen Lake, a remnant of earlier gold dredging operations. Fish the creeks, dams and lakes which abound in the area.
If you only have a short time to spend with us, follow the historic town walk and visit the town museum. Drive through Deep Lead mining areas just out of town or visit the beautiful towns of Daylesford, Castlemaine, Maldon, Kyneton, Ballarat, Clunes and Maryborough all within easy driving distance.
