10 great bike tours in New South Wales (and ACT)

   

By Staff Writer

  Bruce Robertson

New South Wales (NSW) is Australia's fourth largest state by area - bigger than either the US state of Texas or the UK and France combined - and surrounds the Australian Capital Territory (ACT).

Home to Australia’s best known city and packed with stunning landscapes and huge national parks, New South Wales has endless beaches, famous surf breaks, rugged rock formations and vast bushland. The ACT is much smaller but is very well developed in terms of cycling infrastructure and bikeability.

Highlights

  • Blue Mountains for stunning scenery
  • The South Coast for white sandy beaches and beautiful coastal routes
  • The food and wine scene of the Hunter Valley, Southern Highlands and Mudgee/Orange
  • Rural landscapes of the Central West and regional areas
  • Cosmopolitan Sydney
  • The cool vibe and great cycle infrastructure of the federal capital Canberra (ACT)
