Chiltern
Fascinating small historic town
Chiltern is a country town of some 1400 people which is
distinguished by its historic streetscape of well-preserved brick
buildings and old-fashioned timber verandahs. This antique
appearance has drawn filmmakers on several occasions - most notably
for the filming of Walt Disney's Ride a Wild Pony in 1974. It is
located amidst an agricultural landscape 500 metres off the Hume
Freeway and 270 km north-east of Melbourne, between Wangaratta and Wodonga.
