Enjoy the Barwon River, recreating and improving wetland habitat for the southern bell frog. By deepening shallow wetlands, adding native grasses and shrubs to wetland borders and providing a range of climbing opportunities, volunteers will make a real difference to the health and security of frog populations right in the heart of Geelong.

With its snowfields and goldfields, rainforest and desert, picturesque coastline and fascinating history, Victoria is a treasure trove of wonders. The Great Ocean Road leads to the Apostles, rising tall and unforgiving out of the crashing seas off the Shipwreck Coast. The cool rainforests of the Otway Range and East Gippsland, or the alpine meadows in the high country, provide great walking spots.
