Community to choose from three concept designs for the Pioneer Valley Mountain Bike Trails

The council is seeking community feedback on three proposed master plan concepts for the primary trailhead in Finch Hatton.

The community is being invited to have its say on design concepts for the highly-anticipated Pioneer Valley Mountain Bike trails.

Mackay Regional Council has released three proposed master plan concepts for the primary trailhead in Finch Hatton.

The concept designs were developed with input from internationally recognised trail experts, World Trail, as well as key stakeholders involved in the project.

The trailhead will be located at the old Cattle Creek Sugar Mill site because of its strong links to the town and the use of existing mango trees as a boulevard.

Proposed facilities include a revamped Cattle Creek Mill administration building, platypus-shaped pump track, car park, bike rack, toilets, trail signage and event hosting amenities.

Attractions such as the Kungurri train turntable have also been incorporated in some of the concepts.

Both Eungella and Finch Hatton will be trail towns and will act as key service hubs for the Pioneer Valley Mountain Bike Trails.

Feedback on the Finch Hatton Trailhead master plan closes midnight, April 18.
