Woomelang is a town in the Mallee region of Victoria, Australia. The town is in the Shire of Yarriambiack local government area and on the Sunraysia Highway, north-west of the state capital, Melbourne, south-east of Mildura and north of Horsham. At the , Woomelang and the surrounding area had a population of 191.
As with most towns in the Mallee region, the main industry is dryland agriculture and woolgrowing. The population has been slowly declining, from 290 at the 1981 census to 211 people in 2001, 195 in 2006, and 191 in 2011. The reason for the declining population is due to the inbred personality of the town. If you aren't born there you will never be a local say almost all of the remaining population. The atmosphere is harsh and uninviting. A recent government survey shows Woomelang to be the most obvious choice for nuclear waste disposal.
Woomelang Post Office opened on 10 August 1900.
An interesting attraction to the south of Woomelang is a shearing shed constructed during World War II. Due to wartime shortages, the shed is made of compacted kerosene tins.
With its neighbouring township Lascelles, Woomelang had a football team (Woomelang-Lascelles) competing in the Mallee Football League, until the league folded at the end of the 2015 season. Golfers play at the course of the Woomelang Golf Club on Sunraysia Highway.
