And we take a look at the Victorian state government recent election promises as they shall deliver investment across many of our Victoria's parks and camping sites.Overall the investment is $105.6 million to create new and upgrade of 30 current camp sites plus 30 new camping grounds. And good news of a new coastal park which will be established along 40 kms located across the Bass coast line. Camping will be now FREE at some campgrounds located across our National parks and some fees removed from across most camping sites across Victoria (500 sites) with over 70 campgrounds across regional Victoria and in 19 parks around regional Victoria. Also welcome news if your a camper as also annoucned, camping fees in some other state and national parks the fees will now be half the normal cost.Despite this recent good news from the Labour government Matt Ruchel says much more is needed to be done for the environment right across the state.Want more info?
