The Shire of Kaniva was a local government area in the Wimmera region of western Victoria, Australia, near the South Australian town of Bordertown. The shire covered an area of {{convert|3082.11|km2|sqmi|1}}, and existed from 1891 until 1995.

History

Kaniva was originally part of the Shire of Wimmera when it was incorporated in 1862, then became part of the Shire of Lowan when it split away from Wimmera. The Shire of Lawloit was established in its own right out of the West Riding of Lowan on 29 May 1891. It was renamed Kaniva on 22 May 1939.[2]

On 20 January 1995, the Shire of Kaniva was abolished, and, along with the Shire of Kowree and parts of the Shires of Arapiles and Glenelg, was merged into the newly created Shire of West Wimmera.[3]
