Bleakley Track Upgrades

27 March 2024

Bleakley Track

The next phase of trail upgrades for ngurrak barring | RidgeWalk is scheduled to begin from April 2, 2024, weather permitting. These maintenance works will be to Bleakley Track in Sherbrooke Forest and will take up to three weeks to complete.

These trail upgrades are a joint initiative between Yarra Ranges Council and Parks Victoria aimed at improving walking connections between townships and communities. Please see map of any closures below during this time.


1. Bleakley Track (Outlined in red is closed for upgrading)

2. Tregellas Track (Outlined in green is closed)

3. Lipscombe Break (Outlined in purple is closed)

4. Pole Plot Track (Outlined in yellow is open)

5. Coles Ridge Track (Outlined in blue is open)

We endeavour to make the disruption to trail users as minimal as possible by completing small sections at a time and re-opening where possible on weekends. Onsite signage will have the most up to date trail closure information.

During this closure we recommend following through Coles Track onto Old Monbulk Road that will lead you back to Belgrave main street.

The Toroa Track in Doongalla Forest is now open to the public following recent completion of track upgrades.
