Caravan Parks and Camping Grounds – COVID 19
At the direction of the Chief Health Officer Victoria campsites, caravan parks and camping grounds will now be closed to visitors.
This will be effective from 11.59pm (local time) 25 March 2020.
The only people permitted to remain will be:
People who already have the caravan park registered as their primary place of residence; and
People staying in caravan parks as interim accommodation where their primary residence is not available (including those of no fixed address and people placed in emergency housing by DHHS).
These actions follow further restrictions on domestic and international travel, with all non-essential travel banned. Compliance with this directive is enforceable under the section 203 of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008 and penalties apply.
It is important to reduce the risk of infection and slow the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) in the Victorian community.
Unfortunately we have had to cancel this Sundays' planned fundraiser due to commitments to crews working on the local fire and the forecast of wet weather. Stay tuned we may have an alternate date in the not too distant future!

Otways Tourist Park Gellibrand Vic, campping and cabin accomodation. Situated on 3.2 ha of landscaped parkland, located at the foot of the OTWAY RANGES, in the middle of the rural township of Gellibrand. We offer an alternative to the hustle and bustle of a sea-side resort town, yet we are only a 40 minute drive away from The Great Ocean Road and beaches. We are within 20 minutes of the OTWAY FLY TREETOP WALK and within a 30 minute drive from TURTONS TRACK TOURIST DRIVE and some of the most SPECTACULAR WATERFALLS and SCENIC DRIVES in the OTWAYS. Lavers Hill and Melba Gully, known as "The Jewel of the Otways" are only 30 kms away. Here you can enjoy Rainforest walks as well as see the Glow Worms at night. Rivers in close proximity to the park offer good fishing, Gellibrand River is renowned as "Home of the Blackfish".
