The 2.3 kilometre long shared pathway between Strathfieldsaye and Junortoun links Sullivans Road, Watson Drive, Turners Road and McIvor Forest Drive.
City of Greater Bendigo engineering manager Brett Martini said the pathway connected growing communities and a number of schools.
"It also enables the Junortoun community to safely access Strathfieldsaye sporting facilities by bike or on foot,” he said.
The construction of the new path was supported by Strathfieldsaye and Districts Community Enterprise who contributed $50,000 towards the project. It was also supported by Parks Victoria and Dja Dja Wurrung Clans.
