About Swan Hill Rural City Council

Swan Hill, VIC, Australia
Administration & Office Support

Swan Hill Rural City is principally an agricultural and horticultural region deriving its income from these industries and the businesses that service them.

The municipality is bordered by the Murray River, Australia’s greatest river, for over 300 kilometres and is highly dependent on it for irrigation, domestic and industrial water supplies as well as active and passive recreational pursuits.

Swan Hill and Robinvale are the two largest service centres in the municipality, however a number of smaller towns such as Lake Boga, Manangatang, Nyah, Nyah West, Piangil, Ultima and Woorinen South offer a variety of lifestyles.
