Koetong is a locality in north-east Victoria, Australia. The locality, part of the Towong Shire local government area, is on the Murray Valley Highway between Tallangatta and Corryong, 394 kilometres (245 mi) north-east of the state capital, Melbourne, .
Koetong was surveyed in 1885 but not proclaimed until 1952.[1] Tin and gold mining has been sporadically carried out in the area since 1873.[2]
The local state school first opened in 1890 and after several temporary closures, closed permanently in 2003.[1] The town is an access point to nearby Mount Lawson State Park.[3]
