ABC Kinglake Ranges was a temporary radio service broadcasting from Kinglake, Victoria, Australia, to areas in the Shire of Murrindindi affected by the Black Saturday bushfires of 2009. The station was first broadcast on 9 March 2009, initially from a makeshift transmitter on 97.1FM.[1] Coverage extended to the towns of Flowerdale and Hazeldene through the local repeater of the Wodonga-based ABC Goulburn Murray service.[2]

The station broadcast a local breakfast program, presented from the studios of 774 ABC Melbourne by Louise Fitzroy.[1] A mornings program was presented from temporary studios in Kinglake by Simon Rogers, with additional community-focused programming and simulcasts of national programming from ABC Local Radio.[3]

In July 2009, the service ceased broadcasting after five months on air.[4] Alexandra-based UGFM commenced operation of a permanent community radio station on 94.5FM in Kinglake from 6 September 2009.[5]
