The Masterplan encapsulates unique alpine and subalpine terrain, proposing immersive storylines of culture and environment through sensitively designed new infrastructure. These layered storylines weave their way through a varied landscape of high plains, river valleys, ridgelines and mountain peaks. In order to maximise experiences for a diverse array of walkers, including individual adventure seekers, small and self-guided groups, larger educational and school groups and guided tours, a suite of improvements and additional infrastructure will be developed to the highest standards of sustainable planning, design and management.
