Cape Conran Coastal Park closures due to bush fire recovery

Due to widespread bush fire damage in January 2020, the following areas of Cape Conran Coastal Park are closed for safety reasons:

- East Cape Boardwalk

Old Coast Road Closed

Old Coast Road between Conran Cabbage Tree Road and Sydenham Inlet Road is currently closed until the 29th of October 2021 for roadworks.

Hazardous tree works

Hazardous tree removal after bushfires

Following the Cape Conran Coastal Park bushfires in January 2020, damaged trees have become a significant risk to public safety and requires ongoing management.

A large volume of hazardous tree material will be removed from Banksia Bluff campground, accommodation, and East Cape Day visitor areas from October to November 2021.

A hazardous tree has significant structural defects that increase the risk of falling, causing injury or death. These works are essential to ensure these popular visitor areas remain open and is part of Parks Victoria’s bushfire recovery work.

Banksia Bluff Cabins closed temporarily to undertake fire recovery works

Banksia Bluff Cabins at Cape Conran Coastal Park will be closed during October while fire recovery and maintenance works are completed. The cabins and lodge will reopen for the Melbourne Cup long weekend.

The cabins were significantly impacted by the 2019-20 bushfires. Three cabins and all the wilderness retreat tents were destroyed. The remaining four cabins and lodge survived and have been available for bookings since April 2021. Essential asset repair and maintenance works is scheduled from the first week of October which requires the accommodation to be closed to ensure safety for visitors.

Deer Control (ground shooting) operation underway

Deer control is being undertaken in this park from October 2021 to June 2022. Some localised access restrictions may apply. Find out more about this program at https://www.parks.vic.gov.au/projects/deer-and-feral-animal-control-in-response-to-bushfire
