It lies 77.9 km west of Geelong, VIC (from Geelong, VIC: bearing 259°T), and is situated 9.3 km west-north-west of Colac. The air here carries the tang of salt and damp earth, a constant reminder of the wild coast that shapes this place. Rolling hills, cloaked in a patchwork of emerald pastures and darker stands of eucalypt, fall away towards the dramatic meeting of land and sea. Sheep graze stoically on slopes that can, in the late afternoon, be painted with a luminous, honeyed light, a gentle benediction before the twilight deepens. The terrain is a subtle theatre of curves and hollows, suggesting a landscape that has been shaped by patient weather and the slow work of water.
The story of Corunnun is one of hardy beginnings, the land yielding its bounty to those who understood its rhythms. Early settlers, drawn by the promise of fertile soil and the proximity to the coast, carved out lives here, their efforts etched into the very character of the district. The local economy, once heavily reliant on sheep farming for wool, still retains that pastoral heart, though it has diversified to embrace tourism, drawn by the dramatic coastline and the allure of the Otways. This quietude, however, belies a history of resilience, a testament to the enduring spirit of the people who have called Corunnun home. The distant roar of the surf is a constant soundtrack, a powerful, untamed pulse that underlies the peaceful unfolding of everyday life.
