To Protect and Enjoy

 
 
 
 

We are a group of people who are interested in nature, natural history and conservation, and like to meet up for talks and excursions in the Latrobe Valley and surrounding areas, and spring and summer camps further afield in Victoria.

Visitors are very welcome at Club activities or you can support the group by becoming a member.

Please do not bring pets on our excursions. Thank you for your consideration.

Please note - our excursions will go ahead unless the authorities declare Catastrophic Fire Danger Rating. If this occurs the excursion will automatically be cancelled.
