Cycling

Cycling

Canberra has an extensive network of designated bike lanes on both main and secondary roads. Outside the city, mountain bikers can explore the trails through the forests and pines. On firmer ground, road cyclists can navigate between bike-friendly cafes and bakeries in the Australian Capital Territory. The easiest way to get a bike in Canberra is by signing up for the Share A Bike bike-sharing scheme. They have automated bike rental machines around the city centre. For longer rides, consider companies like Cycle Canberra that will deliver your new two-wheeled mate right to your hotel. Of course, you always have the option of joining a guided bike tour, too.
