    Torrumbarry camping area earth works

    Parks Victoria have recently completed earthworks in the area between Headworks Road and the Torrumbarry Weir, downstream of Echuca. The works aim to repair ground damaged in the building of the emergency flood levee. Some areas may be soft and unsuitable for heavy vehicles or caravans, and may become boggy if rain occurs. Where there are still piles of fill in popular camping areas, please do not climb, ride bikes on or move soil from these piles as they are unstable and may cause injury.

How we keep it special

More people are connecting with Victoria’s natural and cultural landscapes than ever before, which is why Parks Victoria supports healthy and resilient parks for current and future generations.

Parks Victoria is responding to climate change, extreme weather events, human impacts, previous land management practices, invasive species and the changing distribution of plants and animals that is challenging park management and conservation efforts.

Working with Traditional Owners, partners, communities and individuals, Parks Victoria is investing in nature’s future through joint management, projects to enrich visitor experiences and programs to protect habitats and cultural heritage.
