About Anakie
Anakie is a rural village between Geelong and Bacchus Marsh in Victoria, Australia, in the foothills of the Brisbane Ranges, about 35 kilometres north-west of Geelong. The name is thought to derive from the Aboriginal words Anakie Youang, meaning little hill, and the area was occupied by Frederick Griffin's Anakie pastoral run from 1842.
