Cycling in the Barossa

The mediterranean climate and variety of terrain supports a broad range of cycling opportunities in the Barossa for road cycling and mountain bike enthusiasts, and those wanting to tour the Barossa at a much slower pace.

Hire a bike from the Barossa Visitor Information Centre and ask the staff for suggestions on creating your own touring route that takes in the picturesque views and attractions of the region.

Have a look at our Walking Trails and Scenic Drives page, or visit the Bike SA website for information about cycling in the Barossa and South Australia.

New Cycling Track for the Barossa

If you like the Riesling Trail in the Clare Valley, then you'll be excited to know there is a new cycling track being established in the Barossa!

The Barossa Council in conjunction with the Commonwealth Department of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development is undertaking an initiative to construct this path along a closed railway line and will link the three major towns of Tanunda, Nuriootpa and Angaston, taking full advantage of the magnificent views across the valley floor.

With the intention to develop interpretive signage and artworks along the trail, this project is very exciting not only for local residents but also for the many visitors that enjoy the cultural and recreational features of the Barossa.
