Take a stroll on the new Nagambie Foreshore Walk It’s the perfect way to take in the views of Lake Nagambie – a 1.6km pathway stretching along the southern edge of Lake Nagambie, from the township to the Regatta Centre. Even better, the barriers have now been removed on the Nagambie Foreshore Walk, meaning the picturesque new pathway can be used by the public. Strathbogie Shire Council Mayor Cr Laura Binks said Council was excited for the public to be able to enjoy the foreshore walk ahead of its official opening with key stakeholders next month. “We’re inviting the Nagambie community and key stakeholders to join in the fun as we officially open the Foreshore Walk on October 10 from 9.30am,” Cr Binks said. Cr Binks said her first stroll along the new accessible path did not disappoint. “The foreshore walk provides such a beautiful aspect as you take in the views of Lake Nagambie,” she said. “It is a real win for tourism in Strathbogie Shire as it will create an attractive and iconic walking trail for residents and visitors to enjoy year-round. Go Nagambie President, Lee Rowland said, “It’s been a long time coming but our community is appreciative of all the work that has gone into the project to bring it to fruition. “It's been a challenging few years for business in Nagambie and with the completion of the boardwalk the outlook is positive indeed, “The project will mean even more to locals and visitors in the future and provide the much needed economic boost our town needs,” said Lee. The foreshore Walking trail includes construction of a safe, all abilities accessible pedestrian/cycle path, connecting the Nagambie Lakes Regatta Centre Precinct and the Nagambie Lakes Leisure Park to the Nagambie town centre via an attractive lakeside walk. The project is made possible by a $3 million Victorian Government Regional Development Victoria Grant, along with $350,000 Federal Government grant provided in May 2019 and $250,000 from Strathbogie Shire Council.
