Mansfield’s picturesque Shire is only 2 hours drive north of Melbourne.  The landscape is dominated by the Great Dividing Range and includes the alpine resorts of Mt. Buller and Mt. Stirling.  Natural environment features within Mansfield Shire are the Alpine National Park and Australia’s second largest inland waterway – Lake Eildon.   Mansfield Shire boasts major river systems, lakes, mountains, vast tracts of what is referred to as ‘High Country’, and broad, productive valleys where agriculture and rural living integrate.  With Mansfield Shire being a nationally recognised icon location, our municipality is in high demand for recreation and lifestyle activities.
