Wodonga's Waterways

Our waterways provide critical connecting links across Wodonga, both for people and wildlife

Wodonga Landcare works with Wodonga Council, the North East Catchment Management Authority, along with WULN member groups, community members and other stakeholders to enhance, retain and improve waterways within Wodonga.

Our aim is to develop ecologically healthy and self-sustaining waterway environments throughout the Wodonga region, promoting community values and social utilisation of the riparian zone where applicable.

We seek to collaborate with landowners and managers to improve water quality by stabilising riverbanks, managing stock, and revegetating so that water quality is protected from sediment and other pollutants.

We help to protect and restore waterway corridors so that they provide habitat and refuge for native fish, birds, animals and people.

We advocate for our waterways to ensure that they continue to nurture our health, wellbeing and connection to nature.
