Glenlyon is a small village in the Shire of
Hepburn local government area, Victoria,
Australia around 12 km from Daylesford along
the Daylesford - Malmsbury Road, and around
101 km from the Melbourne CBD via Kyneton
and Malmsbury.

Glenlyon is on the Loddon River.
Despite only being 12 klms from Daylesford and
with a growing permanent and weekender
population, local water provider Central
Highlans Water has not deemed it necessary to
provide Glenlyon with town piped water despite
several reservoirs being nearby and therefore
all residents have a combination of either tanks
and/or bores for drinking and garden water
use. Other utilities include electricity provided
by several retailers, waste water via septic
systems and gas via fixed LPG bottle.

Glenlyon is well known for its main street of old
European trees lending an 'Englishness' to the
village and providing a cooling canopy in the
heat of summer.
