Discover the Wairewa Railway Bridge, also known as O'Gradyโ€™s Bridge ๐ŸŒ‰โœจ,

Located east of Nowa Nowa. This historic wooden bridge, which has stood since 1915, was significantly damaged by the summer bushfires in 2019 / 2020. Despite the devastation, about two-thirds of the bridge remains standing, including the section that crosses Wairewa Road. A stunning lookout has now been built for a lovely view. Itโ€™s a powerful reminder of both the regionโ€™s rich railway history.

Stop by to witness this iconic landmark and its enduring spirit.

๐ŸŒŠ Discover the Snowy River Flood Markers in Orbost! ๐ŸŒฒ

A fascinating piece of history stands tall in Forest Parkโ€”the Snowy River Flood Marker, installed in May 2001. This symbolic marker, carved from a single slab of ironbark, records over 100 years of flood levels, showcasing the power and resilience of the Snowy River.

For those curious about the history of the river, you can also find flood levels recorded on the Old Pump House, located near the old Orbost Butter Factory, just off Forest Road. This is a great spot to reflect on the changing landscape and the community's connection to the river over the decades.

Come explore this unique part of Orbostโ€™s history!
