Overview
The Wagirra Trail has the potential to be one of Australia’s premier riverside trails that links the Central Albury Riverside Parks with both Wonga Wetlands and Mungabareena Reserve. The ultimate destination is still to provide a pedestrian cycle link from Albury to and along the foreshore of Lake Hume. Since the endorsement of the Murray River Experience Master Plan (2007), approximately 23 kilometres of trail has been constructed from the Union Bridge (Central Albury Riverside Parks) to Wonga Wetlands. This includes a 12.5-kilometre loop around Wonga Wetlands.

Wagirra Trail South Albury Route Options
Council have been reviewing route options for the proposed Wagirra Trail extension through South Albury from Union Bridge to Mungabareena reserve. These options will need to consider a number of constraints, a feasibility study and extensive consultation with adjoining land owners.
Our Next Priorities
* Construction of the Wagirra Trail to link Lake Hume Village to Apex Park.
* Commence investigations, feasibility, consultation and cost estimate process to extend the Wagirra Trail from Albury Riverside Parks to Mungabareena Reserve through South Albury.
* Work with the Mungabareena Aboriginal Place Management Group to determine the Wagirra Trail alignment through Mungabareena Reserve that links the boat ramp to the picnic area.
* Undertake initial planning for the long-term vision of connecting to Lake Hume and to Bowna and Tabletop Reserves.
* Investigate feasibility to construct a shared path across Bethanga Bridge.
