A High Country town for unhurried exploring

Myrtleford sits in Victoria’s High Country, with the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail and Great Alpine Road shaping easy ways to arrive and explore. The surrounding alluvial flats support a strong local produce story, while the town’s heritage adds another reason to slow down. Visit Victoria’s Myrtleford guide (opens in a new tab) is a useful introduction to the area.

Make local information your first stop

For maps, current ideas and help matching activities to your time and conditions, call into the Myrtleford Visitor Information Centre (opens in a new tab). Alpine Shire lists its location, opening hours and the local guidance available there.

Plan carefully for mountain country

Mount Buffalo National Park is part of the wider High Country experience. Seasons can change what is practical, so check the official Parks Victoria park information (opens in a new tab) close to departure for current conditions, access information and activity guidance.
