For participating in Great Ocean Trail Ultra

Support Conservation Ecology Centre in the 2024 Great Ocean Trail Ultra.

The Great Ocean Walk winds its way along the most stunning part of Victoria’s coastline: of steep forested ranges rising from the cold turbulent waters, pristine sandy inlets with an abundance of rockpools, dense eucalypt forests and serene fern gullies, and enchanted twisting avenues of melaleucas and casuarinas. This is the coastline of the Southern Otways and the Conservation Ecology Centre (CEC) has been here since 2000 to protect these landscapes. We work to ensure the needs and threats of the wildlife and ecosystems found here are understood and managed, so that they remain resilient into the future. Without active management informed by the best science, the threatening processes facing these landscapes can tip the balance of nature’s beautifully orchestrated ecosystems, reducing habitat and greatly impacting on our wildlife’s ability to survive.

Description

Support the Conservation Ecology Centre in the 2024 Great Ocean Trail Ultra. 

The Great Ocean Walk winds its way along the most stunning part of Victoria’s coastline.  For almost 25 years, the Conservation Ecology Centre (CEC) has been working hard to protect these landscapes.  Our research and conservation programs ensure the needs and threats of the wildlife found here are understood and managed.   

Without this, the threatening processes facing our wildlife and landscapes can overwhelm them.  The CEC are leading the way on delivering a collaborative and cohesive conservation strategy in the region, engaging all stakeholders from universities and Traditional Owners to public and private land managers.   

By fundraising for the Conservation Ecology Centre, you can enjoy the visual splendour of the Great Ocean Walk knowing you are directly supporting vital conservation work to protect this landscape’s wildlife and their homes.
