The Wimmera Southern Mallee is home to more than 54,500 people across 22 towns and includes the new two major centres of Horsham and Stawell.
Our natural landscape is uniquely characterised by the black soil plains, the Grampians (Gariwerd) mountain range, Mt Arapiles (Dyurrite), the Big and Little Deserts, iconic natural lake systems and the Wimmera River.
Our economy is thriving, delivering $7,126 billion in economic output with agriculture the lifeblood of the region.
Critical mineral sands and renewable energy industries are expanding the region’s industry base, and services are emerging to support these growing industries.
Our communities are the social fabric of the region and we’re focused on harnessing the region’s full potential into the future.
