About Pyrenees Shire Council

Beaufort, VIC, Australia
Administration & Office Support

The Pyrenees Shire is a very productive agricultural region covering 3,500 square kilometres. The shire takes its name from the ranges in the north, named by Major Mitchell in 1836 as they reminded him of the Pyrenees in Europe.

This area is renowned for its cereal and hay crops, wool, viticulture and forestry activity. Gold, along with sand, gravel and slate, all contribute to the region's economy. Thirty per cent of the workforce is involved in agriculture, which produces commodities with a gross value of about $70 million each year.
