A Forest for Australia and Altona Treatment Plant

In 1998, environmental artist Agnes Denes created A Forest for Australia at Greater Western Water’s Altona Treatment Plant. Uncover the story of this living artwork, and also the fascinating world of water recycling with a behind-the-scenes tour of the treatment plant.

Visitors will need to enter via our gatehouse and have their name crossed off before entering. Photography is allowed but no video. As this is a working treatment plant, visitors will need to sign a participation and indemnity form and listen to a safety briefing before the tour begins. Please review Greater Western Water's Conditions of Entry for this site before booking. You will be required to sign a hard copy of this form prior to entry.
