Get involved in shaping the future of our tracks and trails

We're developing a long-term strategy to guide how to invest in, upgrade, and maintain recreational tracks and trails across Mansfield Shire and the Alpine Resorts — Mt Buller and Mt Stirling.

What tracks and trails will the Strategy cover?

The Strategy will include all recreational tracks and trails whether they're used for walking, cycling, horse riding or other activities.

Our goal is to develop a strategy that will help to deliver a connected, accessible and high-quality network of tracks and trails that enriches recreation, supports healthy lifestyles and strengthens local economies through tourism.

Our approach

Assess the current network
We’re reviewing existing tracks and trails to understand how they’re used, how well they connect, and what condition they’re in.
Identify issues and opportunities
We’re looking at challenges and potential improvements to enhance user experience, accessibility, and safety.
Evaluate economic benefits
We’ll assess how an improved and expanded network can support local businesses and tourism across the region.
Develop a clear vision, goals and actions
We’ll define a long-term vision and set clear, actionable priorities to guide track and trail investment over the next 20 years.
