King’s Birthday Long Weekend is just a blink away…now is the time to think about your winter break. There’s heaps to do over the winter months so why not plan to visit our region and receive a warm welcome.

01/06/2026

Visitors to Victoria’s parks and forests are being reminded that majority of the seasonal road and track closures will begin from 11 June, following the King’s Birthday long weekend.

Closures help keep visitors safe and protect roads and tracks from winter damage caused by rain and snow.

Each year, Forest Fire Management Victoria, Parks Victoria and the Conservation Regulator enforce road and track closures across public land from June to November.

Before heading out, check road and track closure and local conditions:
➡️ Check the weather forecast
➡️ download the VicEmergency app
➡️ Check which roads are open and suitable for your vehicle

For more information, visit ffm.vic.gov.au/permits-and-regulations/closures-of-parks-and-forests or contact DEECA Customer Call Centre on 136 186.

🚧 Heads up for forest and park visitors 🚧

Seasonal road and track closures across Victoria’s forests and national parks begin on Thursday 11 June and will be in place until November.

These annual closures help keep motorists safe and reduce the risk of damage to roads during the wet winter conditions.

Our Authorised Officers will be in forests over the King’s Birthday long weekend reminding visitors about the upcoming changes, ahead of patrols enforcing the closures.

Before you head out, check which roads and tracks are open and stay on them.
