Just 15 minutes inland from the Great Ocean Road, Timboon offers a quieter, more considered way to experience southwest Victoria.
Once a historic railway hub, the town is now known for its rich food and drink culture, relaxed pace and strong community of makers, growers and artisans. It’s a place where visitors can slow down, explore local stories and enjoy some of the region’s most distinctive produce.
Food, drink and local craftsmanship
Timboon has become a destination in its own right — not only for whisky, but for the collection of experiences that sit around it.
The Timboon Railway Shed Distillery is proud to be part of the 12 Apostles Food Artisans, a collective of local businesses committed to craftsmanship, regional provenance and quality. Alongside iconic local names such as Timboon Fine Ice Cream and other nearby producers, the town offers a food and drink trail well worth exploring.
