Korumburra is set amongst the rolling hills on the edge of the Strzelecki Ranges, 115 kilometres south-east of Melbourne. This town is often referred to as the gateway to Prom Country, South Gippsland, with a population of 4,500 people. The town has a rich history as it is part of the Great Forest of Gippsland. A visit to Korumburra will be enjoyable, with many great cafés, bakeries, hotels, and food outlets available.
Short-term parking for self-contained vehicles is available at Korumburra Showgrounds, on Elizabeth Street - a maximum stay limit of 48 hours applies. Unpowered sites cost $10 per vehicle per night, and access to bins, toilets, power and a barbecue is included. A dump point is located on-site, as is potable water. Please be mindful that the grounds are available for multiple use, and with a number of events taking place on-site, parking may not always be available.
Visitors can step back in time at Coal Creek Community Park & Museum, with more than 50 buildings and exhibits showcasing the coal mining history of the area from the 1870s to the 1920s. Ride the bush tramway, feed the ducks, purchase old fashioned confectionery in the general store or simply enjoy the 36 hectares of natural surrounds with a picnic in one of the many scenic spots around the park.
