Avalon: Swan Hill - YSWH -> South
Swan Hill is best known within Victoria for its setting on the Murray River and its enduring connection with riverboat transport. The regional city stands on the broad, irrigated plains of north-western Victoria, where the river forms the border with New South Wales. Its Pioneer Settlement interprets the town’s nineteenth-century river-port and agricultural past through historic buildings and working craft. Swan Hill Airport sits south of the centre amid the flat farmland that defines this stretch of the Murray Valley. The surrounding district is a major producer of grain, grapes and other irrigated crops, while the riverfront remains central to local recreation and identity.

Corio Bay defines the setting of Avalon — its northern shore and flat volcanic plains give this small Victorian locality between Melbourne and Geelong an open, coastal character. Avalon is best known for Avalon Airport, a former Royal Australian Air Force base that has become an important passenger and freight airport for the region. The airport also hosts the biennial Australian International Airshow, one of the country’s major aviation events. Inland, the granite hills of the You Yangs provide a distinct landmark above the low-lying terrain, while the bay ties the area to Geelong’s waterfront and port.
