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.
