Mist curls across Lake Daylesford as the first light of dawn spills over the eastern hills, casting a golden glow that promises warmth — a promise that any brave soul taking an early plunge would quickly discover is an illusion. The water is still brisk, but each day it’s warming, edging closer to the season when swimming becomes pure pleasure rather than an act of courage.
So it might be time to dust off the budgie smugglers, tighten the core, and get ready for summer dips in one of Daylesford’s most treasured spots.
A big thank you to Scott Jones for this stunning reminder — not that we ever really forget — of the beauty of our beloved lake.
