SPRING GULLY TRAIL HEAD

An existing underutilized park in Spring Gully has been converted into a thriving community asset that is used for regular mountain bike races, birthday parties, community gatherings and by local walkers.

The site recently hosted a national series mountain bike race and demonstrates how a simple, highly considered, human-scaled intervention can have a significant impact on how spaces are valued by multiple community groups. The project has been shortlisted for Park of the Year in the Parks and Leisure Australia 2018 Awards of Excellence for the Victoria and Tasmania region.
