Nhill, Victoria

Nhill is a town in the Wimmera, in western Victoria, Australia. Nhill is located on the Western Highway, half-way between Adelaide and Melbourne. The area has been home to the Wotjobaluk Aboriginal people for thousands of years and was first visited by Europeans in 1845.

Nhill is the administrative headquarters for Hindmarsh Shire and its 2000 residents are mainly employed in either farming or food processing. Tourism is another local industry; Nhill services both the highway traffic passing through and is a gateway to the Little Desert National Park.

The name Nhill comes from the Wotjobaluk word meaning 'the abode of spirits'.

The release of the film "The Road to Nhill" in 1997 briefly placed Nhill in the national spotlight, as did hometown boy Jason McCartney, an Australian Rules footballer, who was so severely injured in the 2002 Bali terrorist bombing that he was given last rites before recovering enough to make an emotional comeback to AFL football.
