Tourist & Visitor Advice
Regional Victoria - Open for Business
Despite the current flooding that is affecting the State, Victoria still has a lot to offer.
Not only are most major events still taking place, but the majority of main roads in the north of the State are open and our beautiful country destinations are looking forward to welcoming you.
The regional townships of Rutherglen, Bright, Cobram, Milawa, Yarrawonga, Beechworth, Wangaratta, Echuca and Shepparton are all open for business.
We want Victorians to get out and experience regional Victoria.

Road closures
VicRoads has launched a new online map-based website and mobile application that can quickly and clearly show what roads are closed due to floods, fires and other emergencies. The website also provides traffic alert information during non-emergency times for incidents such as traffic accidents and car breakdowns.
Visit the Roads Closures and Traffic Alerts website.
Parks and forests
Some parks and forests may be temporarily closed. To find out if they affect your travel plans, visit the Parks Victoria website.
