Mansfield is a small town (population 2,300) in the foothills of the Victorian part of the Australian Alps. It is approximately 180 km north-east of Melbourne. Mansfield is the centre of a large shire; it was amalgamated with the nearby town of Benalla (60 km) to form Delatite Shire but after community action became the first de-amalgamation in Victoria. Mansfield was formerly heavily dependent on farming and logging, but is now a tourist-centre. It is the support town for the large Australia ski resort Mt Buller. It is associated with the High Country tradition of alpine grazing, celebrated in the film The Man from Snowy River, which was made around Mansfield (based on a poem by Banjo Paterson with the same name).
