Chiltern Valley

Chiltern Valley is a rural locality in north-east Victoria, 32 km north-east of Wangaratta and 7 km west of Chiltern. The shallow valley encloses the Black Dog Creek and has Box Ironbark forest to its north.

There were gold finds around Rutherglen, north-west of Chiltern Valley in the 1860s, but 20 years elapsed before the deep leads in Chiltern Valley were worked. Mine tailings can be seen along Chiltern Valley Road: Chiltern Valley No 1 mine was near Pitt Road and the No 2 mine was about 3 km further west.
