The Shire of Northam is developing a Trails Master Plan for the region. The intent of the Master Plan is to develop a suite of trail opportunities for both locals and visitors.
The Master Plan will cover non-motorised trails in the region including walking, running, mountain biking, cycling, horse riding and canoeing/kayaking. Common Ground Trails have been engaged to deliver the Master Plan and invite you to share your thoughts on opportunities for trails in the region via the following interactive mapping tool.
