Taggerty is a village and farming district on the Maroondah Highway, 114 km north-east of Melbourne and 18 km south of Alexandra. The Cathedral Range overlooks Taggerty from the south.
In 1870 gold was discovered in a gully off the Acheron River and worked until 1876.
Taggerty had a mixture of farming and tourism activity, the latter including fishing, bush walking, mountain biking and exploring the natural scenery. West of Taggerty a softwood plantation was established by the Forestry Commission.
