Be a part of nature's cycle
Victoria offers a multitude of purpose-built cycling trails through diverse landscapes and picturesque towns. Enjoy the freedom of travelling at your own pace, and the glow that comes from healthy exercise.
Gently graded paths, often shared with walkers, take you to relaxing and inspiring places unseen from the highway. Cycle beside rivers and beaches to landmark attractions in the heart of Melbourne or through green corridors of quiet bushland and forests alive with native birds and animals.
Whether you choose to enjoy a short section of the trail or the challenge of a longer ride, there are plenty of opportunities along the way to discover the local highlights and welcoming Victorian lifestyle.
