Firefighters have brought a bushfire burning in central Victoria under control.

A Watch and Act alert issued on Friday afternoon for the grass and scrub fire in Black Range Road, Terip Terip has been downgraded.

Water bombing aircraft and eight tankers were used to try to control the fire, which burned in terrain that is difficult to access.

Authorities say residents are not under threat but should stay informed and monitor conditions.
