Please note that the road into Walhalla is currently closed due to a spot over from the burn out around the Horseshoe Bend. The road has been closed as a precaution. We will advise when reopened.

What a difference a few weeks makes...and a few minutes of intense fire. The Walhalla Cricket Ground is...um...fried! Sadly all the great work of the Walhalla Cricket Club has gone up in smoke!
To loose everything you own in a blink of an eye is something few of us can fully understand. You'll have no doubt by now heard the story of Walhalla area local and Maidentown resident Colin [aka... facebook.com/walhalla.victor…
