Mansfield, population 2,500 is a very charming sub-alpine town situated on Fords Creek in a pretty valley, which is also surrounded by the foothills of the Great Dividing Range. Because of its close location to the ski-fields, it is essentially a resort town and a great winter base for those heading to Mount Buller or Mt Stirling to do some skiing. |

Mansfield is also very close to Lake Eildon and the Howqua and Delatite Rivers. Here you can partake in a variety of watersports, including white-water rafting, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and swimming. The area around the lake is also good for bushwalking, horse-riding and four wheel driving. |
