Jindabyne Shared Trail

Project Type: Trail refurbishment, repair, widening, and extension

Project Location: Lake Jindabyne

Funding: NSW Government Grant

What are we doing?

The Lake Jindabyne Shared Trail project aims to provide a 50km trail network around the southern half of the lake. The trail design will target mountain bike riders, walkers and trail runners. The project will complement existing trail experiences in our region which will encourage increased visitation and provide a valuable recreation asset for our community.

The ‘round the lake trail’ vision has been explored by Council over the last 10 years and this project is another step in achieving that vision. The southern route (this project) will provide a variety of trail experiences to a wider user group of riders and walkers. This includes a 50km circuit from the Jindabyne town centre with the options for a shorter journey from either East Jindabyne, Tyrolean or Hatchery Bay.

The Hatchery Bay trail section will link the Lake Jindabyne Shared Trails to the Thredbo Valley Track at the Gaden Trout Hatchery, while the Tyrolean to East Jindabyne section will expand the trails around the western side of the lake.

Latest Update

Further Development Applications (DAs) have now been submitted and tender packages are being developed for works on several sections of the Shared Trail with release of the first tender due in July 2024.
