We are extremely disappointed to see graffiti at the recently upgraded Stevensons Falls.

In early January, the site was targeted by somebody who tagged almost every surface available.

Stevensons Falls is a loved site in the Otways that’s visited by tourists and locals regularly and includes a picnic area, campground and a 500-metre accessible walkway to the falls.

Our crews are working to remove around 18 graffiti tags from across the site.

If you have any information regarding this blatant act of vandalism or any other illegal activity in state forests please contact the DEECA Customer Contact Centre on 136 186.

Who's ready for Friday night tea at the hall? 🥳

Plenty of parking out the back of the hall. BYO a blanket or a few camp chairs if you want to make a night of it! The hall will be open if you'd like to sit and eat at a table.

Please help support local businesses and a chance to get out for the evening and not have to cook! 😅

"Barwon Downs residents say their dangerous and neglected main street has been ignored under a $250-million hinterland road fund.
Works begin today on multiple Otways roads under a $255-million allocation for inland arterial networks to the Great Ocean Road, but Birregurra-Forrest Road at Barwon Downs is not among them."
