The town of Nhill is located between Dimboola and Kaniva in the west of the state. It is approximately at the half-way point between Melbourne and Adelaide on the Western Highway, making it a popular stopping place.

Nhill is situated within a rich wheat growing and sheep grazing district, as well as being surrounded by a number of state and national parks, including the Little Desert National Park which is just a short drive south of town. Lake Hindmarsh is another natural attraction in the area, around half an hour drive north-east of town.

The main street of Nhill consists of a wide boulevard featuring attractive gardens along the centre, while the Lake Nhill and swamplands border the town to the south, offering boating facilities, a boardwalk and bird watching opportunities. Nhill is home to Australia's largest single-bin grain silo, located in the centre of town.
