Savour a slower pace as you explore the Barossa Valley by bike

 

Cycling is a perfect way to explore the natural beauty of the Barossa region at your own pace. Take a leisurely ride past cellar doors along our network off-road cycle trails, challenge yourself on the gravel back roads that criss-cross the valley, or unleash your mountain bike on excellent forest cross country trails. Cycle as little or as much in any direction, enjoying stunning views, attractions and generous Barossa hospitality every step of the way.

This network extends to surrounding towns leading travellers on a journey of discovery. Rural landscapes, hidden attractions and expansive views.
