Gippsland, Agricultural region in Victoria, Australia
Gippsland stretches across 41,556 square kilometers of southeastern Victoria, featuring coastal plains, mountain ranges, lakes, and national parks between Melbourne and New South Wales.
The region underwent significant changes during the 1840s when Polish explorer Pawel Edmund Strzelecki conducted scientific expeditions, naming numerous geographical features throughout the area.
The Gunai Aboriginal people maintained deep connections with this land for thousands of years, developing specialized fishing techniques in the extensive lake systems.
Visitors can reach western Gippsland within two hours from Melbourne via major highways, while eastern sections require approximately four hours of driving time.
The Gippsland Lakes form Australia's largest inland waterway network, spanning 400 square kilometers with three main lakes: Wellington, Victoria, and King.
