The project

This project is being delivered on Gunaikurnai country. 

Angusvale Campground within the Mitchell River National Park in Gippsland is being upgraded to improve access and provide a better visitor experience for campers, hikers and paddlers to experience this special place.

Roads and walking paths within the campground are being constructed and upgraded to improve vehicle access around the campsite, define camping areas and day visitor areas better and improve pedestrian access around the campsite and to the Mitchell River.

Project benefits

Visitors and environment

The upgrades will make it safer and easier for a wide range of people to enjoy the campground.

Environment and cultural heritage management

The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (previously Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning) has granted key environmental permits and approvals. 

GunaiKurnai Land and Waters Aboriginal Corporation (GLaWAC) has assessed the cultural heritage on site and when delivering the work will protect all cultural heritage items.
