About Renting a Car at Myrtleford Center

Myrtleford is located in the Alpine Valley in northeastern Victoria, surrounded by tobacco plantations and alpine forests, approximately 290 km northeast of Melbourne. Three car rental providers in the town center give you the flexibility to explore High Country on your own terms. The town is called the 'Hops and Tobacco Capital' and sits at the confluence of the Ovens River and Buffalo River.

Mount Buffalo National Park is just 25 km away and offers spectacular scenery, while Bright – known for its autumn colors – is 20 km east along Great Alpine Road. Book an AWD or SUV if you visit during winter – roads up to alpine ski resorts such as Falls Creek (55 km) may require snow chains. Visit Myrtleford Butter Factory, which is now a cultural center in the middle of town.
