Mt Holden Reserve Upgrade

  • Project statusConstruction
  • Project value2.387 Million

We're upgrading Mt Holden Reserve to protect cultural heritage, restore the environment and provide a space for the community to relax and exercise.

What we're doing

Mt Holden Reserve is a 40-hectare conservation reserve managed by Hume City Council. As part of implementing the existing master plan, Hume City Council is planning a new path network to improve public access around the mountain and to the summit. Dogs on lead walking will be permitted on the lower perimeter track but dogs are not allowed onto the summit to protect the existing kangaroo population.

Works in early 2025

Cultural Heritage Collaboration: We are working closely to ensure that all works respect and protect the area's environmental and cultural significance, to prepare for next stages.

Safety Measures: Appropriate safety protocols will be employed for all works.

Ongoing works

Environmental Preservation: Existing vegetation and wildlife have been carefully considered, with minimal impact on local biodiversity.

Pathway Construction: 2.5m-wide perimeter track - an unsealed track around the mountain’s base will connect Wedmore Crescent and Mount Drive, providing easier access.

Biodiversity Protection: Controlled burns may be conducted as part of land management to support indigenous plants.
