Mt Helen is set on a whopping 110 hectares of bushland but it’s only 10 kms from the centre of Ballarat. Which means you can listen to birdsong as you study then paint the town red in your downtime.  

Wondering about our facilities? There are too many to list here, but trust us – Mt Helen is basically a mini town. We also have the Ballarat Technology Park onsite (where you’ll find IBM, Grampians Health, Triple Zero Victoria and other businesses).  

The traditional custodians for this area are the Wadawurrung peoples.
