What a fantastic and commendable project for every member of the local community, and tourists alike. To improve fitness and general well-being whilst enjoying the spectacular views, flora and fauna around Lakes Entrance. It's a 'must do' project, and one that will be used for many years to come.

My Vote for Lakes Entrance Community Fitness Trail is near Myer Street, Footbridge & the Esplanade - Marine Parade & Rowe Street - Everett Park. Hoping this gets to the correct Dept & people.
