Why it's worth checking out

Stromlo Forest Park, on Dave McInnes Road on Canberra's western edge, is the capital's premier destination for mountain biking, trail running and outdoor events. Set in the foothills below Mount Stromlo, it offers an extensive network of purpose-built trails for every level, from beginners to elite riders, and has hosted events at the very top of the sport.

Beyond the bikes, it's a vast, open space for running, walking and community events, with criterium and cross-country circuits and plenty of room to roam. For active locals and visitors alike, it's one of the best places in Canberra to get outdoors and moving, whatever your pace.

With a 4.8 rating from more than 1,400 reviews, it's a firm favourite among the people who use it. Trail conditions, facilities, event schedules and access can change with the weather and the calendar, so it's worth checking current park information before you head out — and bringing water, sun protection and the right gear for the trails you plan to tackle.
