The Midland Highway (A300, B300, C518)^[1] links major towns in Victoria (south-eastern Australia), beginning from Geelong and leading all the way to Mansfield. It winds through country Victoria in a large arc, travelling via the towns of Ballarat, Bendigo and Shepparton. The total length of the highway is 452 km.

Route number: A300 (previously State Route 149) from Geelong to Benalla; B300 (previously State Route 153) from Benalla to Barjarg; C518 from Barjarg to Mansfield.

The Midland Link Highway (B300, previously State Route Alt-153) links Barjarg (on the Midland Highway) and Maindample (on the Maroondah Highway), bypassing Mansfield and reducing the journey from Benalla to Alexandra by 19 km.

A further, fragmented section of the highway that ran between the Princes Highway east of Morwell in the Latrobe Valley and Port Welshpool, on the South Gippsland Highway (previously State Route 190), was stripped of highway status in the 1980s.
