Consultation has concluded. Thanks to everyone who contributed

The Regional Tracks and Trails Master Plan was developed by Snowy Valleys Council in collaboration with Tredwell to provide an integrated strategic approach to link towns and villages across the Region. The Master Plan was adopted by Council at the March 2023 Ordinary meeting.

The Snowy Valleys Tracks and Trails Masterplan is an aspirational plan – a vision of what our region’s tracks and trails network could look like in the long term, boosting tourism and local recreation opportunities.

As part of the plan, five priority new development projects were identified. Projects include a trail concept plan and a business case, and where appropriate high-level costings and a review of environmental factors to assist in obtaining funding to complete the work.

  • Gudja Gudja Mura Trail
  • Tumbarumba to Hume and Hovell Track (Tooma Rd Walking/Cycling Path)
  • Tumut River Walk (Elm Dr off-road alignment and signage)
  • Batlow to Tumut Rail Trail (Stage 1: Batlow to Wybalena)
  • Waterfall Drive Trail (establish and promote new Tourist Drive Route)

Council received $270,000 in funding through the Bushfire Community Recovery and Resilience Fund Stream 2 for the master planning process. There are no funds allocated in this funding for tracks and trails building or maintenance.
