Prior to publishing, each route goes through an extensive development process as determined in the WA Trail Development Series, developed in 2019 by DBCA in partnership with trail specialists, key stakeholders, and the trail community. The Series provide guidelines to assist land managers, trail professionals and trail groups in developing and managing trails sustainably and are an important resource for providing a consistent development approach to trails across Western Australia. The intent of these guidelines is to ensure future trails are a recreational asset to the community, and not a liability.
