Bike riding is a great way to spend time together as a family exploring South Australia’s scenic bike trails. There are also plenty of paths and pump tracks around Adelaide that are perfect for younger kids.
Enjoy the freedom of a day adventure exploring the beautiful countryside along the famous Amy Gillett bikeway, or test out the Family Mountain Bike Park at Mount Barker. For something closer to Adelaide, kids can test their skills at the Kurangga Park BMX Track or find your nearest playground or reserve with a small bike track and let the littlies ride to their hearts’ content.
Whether you prefer a challenging ride over rugged terrain or a gentle ride on smooth paths, you’ll find a bike path or track to suit the ability and age of your young riders in our guide below:
