Gold mining and timber cutting were the first industries to attract the european settlers to this region, followed by the wealthy Melburnians, who believed the rich mineral waters gave them life extending qualities. The wealthy then transformed the district into a grand resort style region, with expansive gardens, european style architecture in their mansions, all coming together to form their own unique style of hill retreat.
