Transport

The wind farm is located at 2040 Ballan-Daylesford Road, Leonards Hill. Hepburn Wind encourages you to carpool.

For those coming from further afield, we suggest you visit carpoolone.com.au — a handy website where you can register your interest and meet up with fellow travellers.

If there is enough interest from those who wish to come by train, we will coordinate bus transfers between the Ballan train station and Leonards Hill. We are also planning a bus service on the day between Daylesford bus stop on Bridport Street and Leonards Hill. Please register your interest when you RSVP (there may be a nominal fee for bus transfers) or please email launch@hepburnwind.com.au for further information.

There will be parking available at the wind farm.
