Blampied is a town in the central highlands of Victoria on the Midland Highway.
The town is in the Shire of Hepburn, 117 kilometres (73 mi) north west of the state capital of Melbourne.
Different from Daylesford or Ballarat, Blampied has its own beauty offering stunning volcanic hills and farming landscape.
The town was named after Louis Blampied who built a hotel here which is now called the Swiss Mountain Inn.
