Little River, Administrative division in Wyndham, Australia.

Little River extends across the City of Wyndham, situated 44 kilometers southwest of Melbourne, with a population of 1,353 residents according to the 2021 census.

The settlement began in 1840 when the Travellers Rest Inn was constructed at the intersection of Melbourne-Geelong road and the water crossing point.

The Wadawurrung people built the Wurdi Youang stone arrangement in the area, which marks astronomical events including solstices and equinoxes throughout the year.

The district contains essential services including a primary school, kindergarten, post office, fuel station, public house, and multiple sports facilities for residents.

Scottish Gaelic immigrants settled in Little River during 1852 after relocating from their homeland due to the Highland Clearances and Potato Famine.
