A 30km loop around the CBD and inner city suburbs of Melbourne, the capital city trail is a smooth, flat, easy, shared bike path and a super fun way to see parts of Melbourne you may have never seen before.

It’s around a 4 hour casual ride, but I highly recommend stopping lots along the way. Your stops could include Southbank, Royal Park, Docklands, Melbourne Zoo, Polly Woodside, Studley Park boathouse, Merri creek, Collingwood Children’s Farm and Yarra Bend Park.

There’s plenty of spots to treat yourself to a coffee or lunch,  but I’d recommend stopping in at Green Park in Carlton, Farm Cafe in Collingwood or Pony Fish Island in the CBD (depending on where you start).
