Golden Plains Region

Stretching between Geelong and Ballarat, Golden Plains comprises rolling farmland, vineyards and historic villages like Bannockburn and Smythesdale. Country markets and music festivals draw locals, and the Moorabool and Leigh rivers carve gentle valleys. Residents picnic at a secret river bend under old willows and pick organic herbs from a free community garden behind the library.
