Experiencing Brimbank’s best attractions just got a lot more user friendly.
The council has unveiled a tourist map, which highlights its must-see destinations.
Cr Daniel Allan said it was a great way to showcase the municipality.
“The stats tell us that when people come to visit, they shop local, they spend local and they experience local.”
Flagship parks, historical sites, shopping centres, public art locations and transport locations all feature prominently on the map.
The reverse side features blurbs on key places of interest, including Overnewton Castle and HV McKay Memorial Park.
The town centres of Deer Park, Keilor, St Albans, Sunshine and Sydenham are also highlighted as places to see, each with their own ‘visitor tip’ for those traveling through the area.
Brimbank’s many natural wonders, Brimbank Park and the Organ Pipes are also prominently featured as are key walking and cycling trails, which are mapped out for those who like to keep active.
Featured paths include the Maribyrnong River trail, Kororoit Creek trail, Deer Park Bypass trail, Organ Pipes trail and the Sunshine trail. Cr Allan said the map will be available in local libraries, civic centres and motels.
