Walhalla Working Group - Expression of Interest

Expressions of Interest have now closed.

Walhalla’s Long Tunnel Extended Gold Mine is one of six locations included in the Victorian Goldfields World Heritage Bid (VGWHB), which in February 2025 was placed on Australia’s World Heritage Tentative List (TL) by the Federal Government.

Australia’s World Heritage Tentative List (TL) is a list of ‘properties’ that the Australian Government intends to nominate for the World Heritage List sometime in the future. It's an important step because the World Heritage Committee can't consider a nomination unless the ‘property’ is already on the Tentative List.

Achieving World Heritage Listing is a catalyst for regional regeneration and is estimated to be worth $1 billion to the region (across 6 locations) over 10 years.

The Victorian Goldfields World Heritage Bid website provides a detailed overview of the bid.

Three project working groups (PWGs) with membership from relevant government agencies, local businesses and the community will be established with the primary purpose to identify appropriate projects to support the sustainable development of the region.
