Overview

Barwon Downs sits in the foothills of the Otway Ranges, about 151 km southwest of Melbourne. Proclaimed on 10 May 1910, the settlement recorded a population of 131 in the 2016 census and is centred on agriculture, forestry and tourism, giving residents a rural lifestyle close to natural scenery.

The community enjoys a modest range of amenities, including a church, tennis courts and a public hall, and is supported by a local Country Fire Authority brigade drawn from neighbours. An aquifer near the town supplies water to Geelong during drought, highlighting the area’s regional importance. Though the primary school and post office have closed, the town remains a close‑knit hub within the Colac Otway Shire, with road access linking it to larger centres.
