Lake Daylesford is an artificial lake in the town of Daylesford, Victoria, Australia. It was completed in either 1927 or 1929 after many years of campaigning, beginning in 1893. It was designed by Walter Burley Griffin, the American architect who won the competition to design the city of Canberra. Lake Daylesford was formed when the dam wall was built across Wombat Creek above the Central Springs in 1929. The town wanted an ornamental body of water to beautify the scarred creek landscape.

Primary inflows  : Wombat Creek
Primary outflows  : Molonglo River
Average depth   : 2m (6.6 ft)
Maximum depth : 9m (30 ft)

The lake is about 112 km north-west of Melbourne CBD. From the Dja Dja Wurrung people, who first inhabited the land thousands of years ago, to the Swiss Italian migrants of the gold rush and Melbourne's turn-of-the-century holidaymakers, Daylesford has long been considered a special place of healing.

The water was still, and the reflections of autumn foliage and the barren poplars on the lake were like mirror images. For some reasons, there was a bluish-purple tinge hovering over the lake surface.
