Coopracambra National Park
Coopracambra National Park is one of the most remote sections of Victoria and remains largely undisturbed. The red sandstone gorge of the Genoa River and the surrounding granite peaks form some outstanding scenery. The 35,000ha park protects high conservation values with undisturbed ecosystems, a heritage river, rare flora and fauna and diverse landscape values.
Things to see and do
A 2 kilometre drive along the W.B. Line from the Monaro Highway brings you to a short walking track to the cascading Beehive Falls. The road beyond this point becomes 4-wheel drive only. The heli-pad at Mealing Hill, adjacent to the W.B. Line, gives excellent views of the area including Mt Kaye, Yambula Peak (South East Forests National Park in NSW) and the south to the coast.
The Genoa Wilderness Area provides for self-reliant recreation. Only experienced and well-equipped hikers should undertake walks in the rugged and remote parts of this park. A 'Trip Intentions' form needs to be lodged by hikers at the Cann River or Mallacoota Office of Parks Victoria prior to departure and parks staff notified upon return.
The nearest campgrounds and facilities are in Cann River, Genoa or Mallacoota.
Precautions
* Hikers should remember that during dry weather water may be scarce, and that the creek and river levels can rise rapidly after heavy rain in the catchment
