Dargo, Victoria

Dargo is a town in Victoria, Australia, located 348 kilometres (216 mi) east of Melbourne, in the Shire of Wellington.

The town provided a stopover for Victorian Gold Rush miners on their way to the goldfields of Grant, Talbotville, and Crooked River.

[3] Today the town is a producer of timber and beef cattle, and outside these industries tourism has become a major source of revenue.

The town is a popular destination for four-wheel drive enthusiasts, bushwalkers, sambar deer hunters, and trout fishermen.

An annual Walnut Festival formerly ran through the Australian Easter holiday period and was usually well attended.
