Come spot a platypus for 'platy month' in Toora North at Bryan's amazing native regeneration block and Agnes River overview. Platypus have been seen there!

Platypus are unlike any other animal found on earth, but due to habitat destruction, bushfires, drought and pollution this Aussie icon is threatened with extinction.

By mapping where platypus live, we can track – and then prevent – declines in numbers.

  • The property is approximately 8.5kms from the South Gippsland Highway. Parking on roadside near the Agnes River Bridge.
  • Dress for the open and appropriate for the weather – rain will not deter the hardy!

Check the platy-project website to read more about the project and look at the map of habitat and sightings. 

We can’t promise you will see a platypus, but join us for a beautiful day in nature, and we hope you will be motivated to continue looking by yourself in other waterways near you.
