Myrtleford is located 273km northeast of Melbourne and only 50km from Hume Freeway and has held the Myrtleford Golden Spurs Rodeo on Boxing Day since 1954. The town, positioned in the northern foothills of the Mt Buffalo Range, serves as a gateway to Mt Buffalo National Park and its popular ski resorts.
The Myrtleford Golden Spurs Rodeo is the second longest running Victorian rodeo and the first of the summer circuit.
