Suburb of Wattle Range Council, South Australia
Trihi is a former locality in the Australian state of South Australia located in the state's south east about 343 kilometres (213 mi) south-east of the state capital of Adelaide and about 25 kilometres (16 mi) north-east of the municipal seat in Millicent.[1][5]
Trihi was assigned a locality name under the Geographical Names Act 1991 in 1997 with revised boundaries being gazetted in 2001.[3][8] It was named after Trihi Lagoon.[1] It was abolished on 26 November 2015 and the land within was divided between the localities of Kalangadoo and Mount McIntyre.[4][7]
The 2011 Australian Census which was conducted in August 2011 and which was the last conducted for Trihi before its abolition reports that it shared a population of 519 people with other localities in the area described as the State Suburb of Kalangadoo by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.[2] However, another source suggests a population as low as a "dozen or so families".[9]
At the time of its abolition, Trihi was located within the federal division of Barker, the state electoral district of MacKillop and the local government area of the Wattle Range Council.[6][1]
