Brambuk the
National Park and Cultural Centre – Closures throughout 2024-2025

open.
Parks Victoria is working with
a strategic partnership committee of Gariwerd Traditional Owners from Barengi
Gadjin Land Council, Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation, and Gunditj Mirring
Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation to ‘reimagine’ the future of Brambuk
the National Park and Cultural Centre.
The reimagining project
aims to renew Traditional Owner management arrangements of the Brambuk precinct
and includes careful consideration of the tourism and visitor experiences,
commercial opportunities, cultural education and training programs that may be
available in the future. As part of this project, there are also building
upgrades and refurbishments that require the Cultural Centre to be closed
during 2024-25. However, the park information centre, gift shop and self-guided
walks remain available.
