Guidelines for Trail Planning, Design and Management
Trail users are becoming more discerning and have high expectations about their trail experience, which means that quality infrastructure and services and marketing and promotion activities are becoming increasingly important and the user experience is central to each element of trail design and management.
These guidelines have been prepared to provide a comprehensive and coordinated document to assist the planning, development, construction, management, and promotion of regional trails in the Barwon South West Region.
The guidelines will be of particular interest and assistance to:
• parks and reserve managers (e.g., local councils and state government departments)
• trail builders including volunteer groups
• trail managers
• trail users
• clubs and associations that use trails
• owners of land through which trails pass
