Otway Ranges Environmental Network

The Otway Ranges Environment Network (OREN) brings together people and groups with a shared goal of preserving the native forests in the Otway region of south west Victoria. These dense forests decorate the Great Ocean Road along the hills and behind the tourists spots of Apollo Bay and Lorne.  

OREN was created in 1996 to help prevent the clearfell logging of the biodiverse forests and to protect its inhabiting fauna. This result was in 2008 achieved after an intense eight-year campaign, followed by a six-year anti-deforestation period.  The OREN campaign is solely a non-violent action based, to protect and preserve the local environment. 

The combined efforts of environmentalists and Otway residents working through the OREN network help prevent deforestation of native forests on public lands in Otway. Contact us to know more about the moment or to donate to the cause.
