Overview

Located 37 km east of Melbourne’s CBD, Mount Evelyn is a leafy suburb in the Shire of Yarra Ranges with a 2021 census population of 9,799. Although its railway station closed in 1965, the former line now forms part of the Lilydale‑to‑Warburton rail trail, and the Warburton Trail and Aqueduct Walk thread through the town, linking residents to the Dandenong Ranges National Park and offering easy walking and cycling options for a healthy lifestyle.

The community benefits from a range of local amenities, including five schools, Mount Evelyn Primary, St Mary’s Catholic, Birmingham Primary, Yarra Hills Secondary College (Mount Evelyn campus) and Mount Evelyn Christian School, as well as a police station and the Gary Martin Oval football ground, home to the historic Mount Evelyn Rovers. Seasonal highlights such as the biannual 1950s‑themed Mt Evelyn Street Party showcase a vibrant, family‑friendly atmosphere that reflects the suburb’s steady growth since the 1970s.
