Mount Macedon, Administrative region in Victoria, Australia.
Mount Macedon encompasses multiple towns and settlements across a region extending between Bendigo and Melbourne, characterized by native forests and natural formations.
European settlement began in 1834 when explorer John Aitken introduced merino sheep, initiating agricultural development throughout the surrounding territory.
The traditional lands belong to the Kulin nation, specifically the Wurundjeri, Dja Dja Wurrrung, and Taungurung peoples, who maintained connections for over 26,000 years.
The region connects to Melbourne through the Calder Highway and Bendigo railway line, providing transportation options for residents and visitors.
The area attracted Melbourne's elite during the late 19th century, who constructed grand Victorian residences as summer homes throughout the elevated terrain.
