Cycling

Benalla is the ideal spot for the cycling enthusiast, the weekend warrior or for those just after a dose of fresh country air. Hit the tarmac or trail on one of the many beautiful and scenic rides around Benalla.

The local terrain offers a variety of road riding experiences and the area is well signposted to share the road.

Mountain bike riders will find plenty of places to get the heart racing in the Mount Samaria State Park and Reef Hills State Park.

If you prefer a slower pace, just climb on your bike to explore great local wineries, pubs, markets and farm gates around the area. Peddle out to the Swan Pool Cinema, take in the stunning scenery of Winton Wetlands or learn about the Ned Kelly myth on the Kelly Touring Route, a gentle cycle around the Benalla Ned Kelly sites.
