The popular walk provides lovely views across the Gippsland Lakes to Rigby Island and walkers can often spot dolphins or seals in the area. It's part of a larger project managed by East Gippsland Shire Council that received $2.25 million from the previous federal government for the:
- Hotel Road lookout
- Rotary Park redevelopment
- Linking pathways program
East Gippsland civil construction firm Cal Civil will undertake the rock wall works over the next two months.
