Tracks ‘n’ Trails was formed originally late in 2016 as a 3-month trial to see if people were interested in participating in a volunteer program to work on the Mt Whitfield Arrow Tracks.

It received such a huge response from the general public that a new permanent employed role was made to expand our programs and include the ongoing Tracks ‘n Trails program.

The volunteers have been involved with general track maintenance such as:

  • Repairing steps
  • Levelling surfaces
  • Resurfacing with decomposed granite and cold mix bitumen
  • Revegetation
  • General track maintenance.

The Tracks 'n' Trails group volunteers on Wednesday mornings from 9am to noon.
