Ballarat's hidden stories and surprising secrets are everywhere you look – and your phone knows how to uncover them!
Introducing Victoria's Roam Discovery Trail — a new collection of interactive walking trails connecting some of the Goldfields region's most fascinating destinations.
The Ballarat section of the trail covers about 750m of historic Lydiard Street, with 10 creative wayfinding markers dotting the route from The Goods Shed through to Dana Street.
Scan the QR codes along the way to unlock immersive storytelling, augmented reality and unexpected encounters with the city's past.
Step aboard Ballarat's original steam locomotive, discover the fortunes and rivalries forged during the gold rush, and encounter tales of ghosts, legends and larger-than-life characters.
We recommend allowing around 45 minutes to fully experience the Ballarat section and its interactive content.
The world-class Roam Discovery Trail also extends to Hepburn Springs, Bendigo, Castlemaine, Bridgewater and Hanging Rock.
