The Glenelg Shire is nestled in Victoria’s south west corner, featuring an area rich in history and diverse in landscape. Portland, located around a deep-water port, is the major urban city in the Shire, offering a unique balance of business and tourism.
The towns of Dartmoor, Casterton and Heywood are situated around vibrant rural communities. Together with the peace and serenity of the Glenelg River flowing down through the National Parks to the quaint little village of Nelson, the Glenelg Shire has something for everyone!
