Traralgon, Administrative center in Latrobe Valley, Victoria, Australia
Traralgon stands as the largest city in the Latrobe Valley region, surrounded by fertile lands that support dairy farming and agricultural activities.
European settlement began in 1844 when the Hobson brothers acquired a 19,000-acre pastoral lease, marking the start of agricultural development in the area.
The land holds deep connections to the Gunai/Kurnai Indigenous people, who left evidence of their presence through marked trees and stone tools across the region.
The Princes Highway and V/Line rail services connect Traralgon to Melbourne, while local transportation needs are met by the Latrobe Valley Buslines network.
The Loy Yang Power Station within Traralgon generates electricity using brown coal from the Latrobe Valley, supporting regional industrial development since the 1980s.
