Overview

Heathcote lies 110 km north of Melbourne and 40 km south‑east of Bendigo on the Northern and McIvor Highways, and the 2021 Census counted 2,962 people. The town retains essential services – fire and police stations, a post office, two primary schools and the heritage‑listed court house – and offers a mix of historic sandstone homes and newer residences, remaining road‑linked after the Heathcote railway line closed in 1968.

Outdoor lifestyle is centred on nearby Heathcote‑Graytown National Park, Lake Eppalock, the Pink Cliffs Geological Reserve and the Valley of the Liquid Ambers park, while the surrounding wine region is celebrated for Shiraz. Community events include the film, harvest and wine‑and‑food festivals, and sport facilities such as an 18‑hole golf course, harness track and football club add to the vibrant social scene.
