Wimmera, Agricultural region in western Victoria, Australia
The Wimmera region encompasses 2.3 million hectares of land, featuring flat plains punctuated by Mount Arapiles and bordered by the Grampians mountain range.
Thomas Mitchell named the region during his Australia Felix expedition in 1836, leading to pastoral settlements along watercourses throughout the early 1840s.
The traditional lands belong to the Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia and Jpagulk People, represented by the Barengi Gadjin Land Council Aboriginal Corporation.
The region contains 25 percent of Victoria's wetlands, with annual rainfall varying from 380 millimeters in the north to 580 millimeters in the south.
German-Lutheran communities established themselves in the 1870s and 1880s around Dimboola and Horsham, contributing to the region's agricultural development.
