Anakie /ænəˈkiː/ is a town between Geelong and Bacchus Marsh, in Victoria, Australia.

The town is also a stopping off point for the Brisbane Ranges National Park.

The area was first settled by Europeans in 1842 when Frederick Griffin established his Anakie pastoral run.

The size of the farming lots were too small for most farmers to make a living, and so consolidations occurred, which resulted in a drop in population.

Residents in Anakie experienced severe bushfires on 22 January 2006 with fires spreading over 67 square kilometres (26 sq mi) of land and at least three homes being lost in conditions surpassing 42 °C (108 °F).
