Lake Colac Path Feasibility Study

For many years both the Colac Otway Shire Council and the wider community have harboured ambitions to construct a shared path around the perimeter of Lake Colac to capture the active and passive recreation opportunities, as well as tourism and event opportunities such a path may provide. In 2022, the Colac Otway Shire Council engaged consultants to conduct a feasibility study into a perimeter path around Lake Colac.

The aim of the study was to determine the feasibility of establishing a shared path of 2.5 metres width to the foreshore edge around the perimeter of Lake Colac and identify any significant opportunities and benefits including barriers, issues or constraints.

The Draft Lake Draft Perimeter Path Feasibility Study is now on exhibition with the community invited to provide feedback.
