HELP NEEDED to create the missing walk/cycle link on the Bellarine

Imagine a weekend adventure - catch the ferry from Melbourne to Portarlington, walk through coastal scenery and visiting wineries as you go, on off-road shared paths to Geelong, then jump on the train back home.

A proposed 7km trail link between Portarlington and Drysdale would connect the Bellarine Rail Trail to the Coastal Trails and help make this kind of adventure a reality.

If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, the Bellarine Bicycle Users Group have created a project to get council, business and community support. Please add consider adding your support.
