Balmattum is a pastoral district north-east of
Melbourne between Euroa and Violet Town. It was
named after Balmattum Hill, a small range
immediately south-west of Euroa.

Balmattum is situated on flat, relatively treeless
country near the railway line. Balmattum has a
church, a CFA station and fuel stops on the Hume
Freeway.
Balmattum East is closer to a timbered range
south-east of the Hume Freeway.
