Koroit has served as a rural service town in western Victoria since the mid-19th century. It stands on volcanic plains between Warrnambool and Tower Hill, an extinct volcano whose crater contains a lake and forms the Tower Hill Wildlife Reserve. The area is part of Gunditjmara Country, and later Irish settlement remains central to Koroit’s local identity. The annual Koroit Irish Festival marks that heritage through music, dance and community gatherings. Compact streets and farming land give the town a distinctly Western District character, while the coast lies close to the south.
