Keen to get out and about with other nature lovers? Our volunteer-led bushwalking and activities program and our citizen science programs will get you out and about exploring the places we love!

This latest program covers the period from mid-January to February as well as some of our March activities. More activities for March will be included in our Autumn activities program.

Join us this summer and you could:

- search for sea slugs at San Remo with our very own marine biologist Kade Mills
- snap beautiful pictures of the Wombat State Forest at an environmental photography workshop
- marvel on at pelicans at Edward’s Point on the Bellarine Peninsula
- take a walk in the cool forests in Dandenong Ranges National Park

Check out the full program of summer activities here.
