About Lilydale
Lilydale is the gateway to the Yarra Valley, a substantial town of 17,300 in the Yarra Ranges, 36 kilometres from Melbourne's CBD. The Lilydale line terminates here, providing metropolitan rail access, while the suburb marks the transition from suburban Melbourne to wine country and mountain forest. The town retains country character despite significant growth.
Main Street Lilydale offers shopping and services with genuine country-town atmosphere. The Yarra Valley wineries begin just beyond, while the Warburton Trail provides excellent cycling. Lilydale attracts families seeking the outer east's blend of train access, valley views, and country character, using the town as a base for exploring one of Victoria's most beautiful regions.
Lilydale falls under postcode 3140 and is governed by Yarra Ranges Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Evelyn (Eastern Victoria) electorate.
