Parks Victoria is replacing the toilets at Federation Hut near the summit of Mount Feathertop, Alpine National Park

  • The works will commence Tuesday 10 March and are expected to finish in early April 2026. To ensure visitor safety, access to the work site next to Federation Hut will be restricted.
  • Temporary toilet facilities will be available during this time. The camping area will remain open and visitors will still be able to access walking tracks including Bungalow Spur, North West Spur and the Razorback.
  • Due to the remote location and difficult terrain, a helicopter will be used to fly materials and equipment to and from the site. There will be loud construction noise and frequent helicopter presence while demolition and construction works are underway.
