With a perfect climate, Brisbane is a perfect destination for outdoor activities. The city is relatively flat and has numerous parks to enable you to walk, cycle, and skate to your hearts content!

Cycling: With over 5,000 kms of cycle ways across Brisbane there are many rides to choose from. If you like you can take a ride around the river, explore the suburbs or even cycle around Moreton Bay. There is a booklet, Brisbane Bicycle Experience Guide, in the tourist information centres that will give you details on the numerous paths. Their are some scenic routes that follow the river, from 5 to 20 kms, or you can start off easy at the City Botanic Gardens and cross the Goodwill Bridge to the University of Queensland. Bikes are allowed on the City trains, with the exception of peak hours, City Cats and Ferries for free.

In-Line Skating: Cycle tracks are also great for skating. Skatebiz, on Albert Street, offers skate rentals and any safety equipment you may need for your day. Other great places to cycle are Southbank Parklands, City Botanic Gardens and Brisbane River paths.  Read more...
