Kongwak is a small town in Victoria, Australia. It is
located on the Korumburra to Wonthaggi Road
southeast of Melbourne, in the South
Gippsland Shire At the 2006 census, Kongwak had
a population of 193.

Kongwak was once a thriving community housing
miners who assisted with the production of coal for
the neighbouring La Trobe valley. Since this time
the large population has slowly dwindled away and
is a very small size now (2010) with the recent
closure of the sugar mill. Locals would suggest this
has been a good thing for the feel of the
community being very local and close and the
farming area supports the busier nearby areas of
Inverloch, Wonthaggi and Korrumburra.
