Adelong Connecting Community to Creek
Consultation has concluded
Towns and Villages - Protect and preserve local history and heritage
Council was allocated $515,000 to enhance the Adelong Creek and Falls connection and to re-establish the existing walkway previously damaged during flooding.
The Adelong Falls Walk was completed in April 2019. Works included clearing, erecting of boundary fencing and reinstating the pathway with a gravel base topped and a two part spray seal.
Bank stabilisation works including rock-walling to reduce further erosion to the bank and prevent bank failure was completed in March 2021.

28 April 2019
Time to lace up your running shoes Adelong – the Adelong Falls Walk is signed, sealed and delivered! Sealing of the Creek Walk pathway marks the completion of the first phase of works in the $515,000 Adelong Connecting Community to Creek Project funded by the NSW Government. Accessible through the Adelong Caravan Park, the pathway follows along the creek linking the pathway to the Adelong Falls Gold Mill Ruins and Reserve.
The pathway was reinstated with a gravel base topped and a two part spray seal to the same standard used to construct other pathways throughout the Council area. This substrate has proven successful in providing a low maintenance, long lasting surface suitable for all users including pedestrians, prams, wheelchairs and bikes.
