Nillumbik is renowned as the Green Wedge Shire, located 25 km north-east of Melbourne. Key centres include Eltham and Diamond Creek, as well as rural townships including Hurstbridge and St Andrews. The Green Wedge covers 91 per cent of the total area of the shire and is characterized by steep ridges and gently sloping hills, enclosing plains and flats. Kinglake National Park, reserves and bushland, together with lifestyle properties, hobby farms, orchards, wineries and broadacre farms all make up this unique landscape.
