Overview

Alberton lies on the South Gippsland Highway, just 7 km south of Yarram and 216 km east of Melbourne, with the Albert River winding through the town. At the 2021 Census the community numbered 297 residents, offering a quiet, rural lifestyle centred on cattle grazing. The historic South Gippsland route provides easy road access, while the former Alberton railway station recalls a period of growth spurred by the early 20th‑century rail line that once connected the area.

The town retains a few key amenities: a primary school opened in 1858 (celebrating 150 years in 2008) and the 1889 Victoria Hotel, still standing as a local landmark. Housing ranges from the original 19th‑century homes built during the railway boom to more recent dwellings, reflecting Alberton’s modest but enduring residential mix.
