Cessnock City Council Trails Strategy

Current, Trails

The Cessnock City Council has engaged Tredwell Management Services to develop a Trails Strategy to develop a consistent policy framework over a ten year period to guide decisions about the management of, and investment in, trails and to provide a vision of what the trail network across the Cessnock region will look like in the future.

The Strategy also considers the tourism and economic benefits that can be realised through a strategic approach to the development of tracks and trails infrastructure. Areas of significant interest which are a key focus of this strategy include:

• Locations where the natural environment can be appreciated and leveraged to increase participation
• Locations where physical activity opportunities are limited within townships
• Locations that link users to recognisable sites
• Existing or potential inter-municipal and cross-border linkages.
