Good to know

Carry water, especially on warm days. Gravel can be loose in places, so standard hybrid or mountain bike tyres work best. Spring (Aug–Oct) offers pleasant riding conditions. Summer heat and bushfire risk may affect access; check conditions before visiting. Dogs are often permitted on cycle paths unless otherwise signposted.
