High Country Iconic Campground upgrades

The project

 This project is being delivered on Gunaikurnai and Taungurung Country.

Camping in the remote and beautiful Victorian High Country is an experience many people enjoy. Popular campgrounds across parks in the Alpine region of Victoria will receive upgrades. At Talbotville, a new toilet, fire pits and picnic tables will be installed. The Zeka Spur Track into the Wonnangatta Valley has been repaired, including a small landslip on the track.
