Ensuring safety while caring for our iconic Moonah tree
Barwon Coast has recently completed essential safety works on the iconic Moonah tree at the entrance to Barwon Heads Caravan Park.
Following regular monitoring and an independent arborist assessment, two high-risk trunks were removed while the main trunk remains, ensuring safety for the community, campers, and staff.


In consultation with Wadawurrung Traditional Owners, Barwon Coast will also plant five new Moonah trees within the coastal reserve to support the long-term presence of this important species. We appreciate the community’s support as we continue to care for the coast.
