Noojee Trestle Bridge

The Noojee Trestle Bridge is a historic timber railway trestle bridge on Trestle Bridge Road in Noojee, Baw Baw Shire, Victoria. Originally built in 1919 and rebuilt in 1927 after bushfire destruction, it is 102 metres long and 20 metres high, making it the tallest surviving timber trestle bridge in Victoria. Set in temperate rainforest, it is preserved as a heritage attraction and forms the centrepiece of a short rail trail walk near the town centre.

Visitors can walk across the restored timber trestle bridge set above a fern-filled gully in temperate rainforest. The structure features tall timber trestles and a timber deck with railings, offering views into the forest canopy and valley below. A short walking track leads from a car park and picnic area to the bridge, with information boards explaining its railway history. The surrounding area is quiet and forested, suitable for sightseeing, photography and short nature walks.

Constructed in 1919 as part of the Noojee railway line to serve the timber industry in the upper Latrobe Valley. The original bridge was destroyed by bushfire in 1926 and rebuilt in 1927 using timber trestle construction. The line operated until 1954 when it closed, and the bridge was later preserved and restored as a heritage structure representing Victoria's narrow-gauge timber tramway and railway era.

Heritage-listed example of timber trestle bridge engineering and a landmark of the region's timber milling history. It is valued by the local community as a symbol of Noojee's railway and forestry heritage and is maintained as a cultural and tourism attraction within Baw Baw Shire.
