Neds Corner Station will be closed to all visitors from Friday 20 March until further notice. Our station managers will be in touch with groups who have upcoming visits or accommodation bookings on a rolling basis.
We apologies for any disappointment this may cause to our loyal community of supporters of Neds Corner, but we have taken this decision to protect the health of visitors and resident station managers. Trust for Nature staff will continue our important conservation work at Neds Corner until we are able to welcome you back.
Conserving Victoria’s outback jewel
Situated in the Mallee region and adjacent to the Murray-Sunset National Park, this 30,000 hectare property represents a unique opportunity for nature conservation in Victoria.
The property, purchased by Trust for Nature in 2002, is home to almost 1000 species, including 77 threatened plants, 24 reptiles and more than 120 types of birds. Researchers have also found 21 species not previously known to science. Among its many wonders is a new species of daisy for Victoria. The Large Hard-head Daisy is symbolic of the rich diversity of plants and animals that call Neds Corner home. Other treasures include a population of the nationally threatened Growling Grass Frog and a new species of fungus.
Under the care of Trust for Nature, Neds Corner has shown dramatic recovery from a heavily grazed agricultural holding to a conservation reserve of national significance. What were bare sand hills and hard, compacted plains are now vegetated with saltbush and blue bush vegetation.
