RIDE THE RED CENTRE

WHERE TO RIDE?

Alice Springs bike paths make getting around to see the attractions super easy and fun!

For a half day bike ride you can visit the Telegragh Station, Todd Mall, Botanical Gardens and the Royal Flying Doctor Service Tourist Facility. There are many other attractions around the CBD area to add in all on sealed bike paths.

For a full day you can head out to the Telegragh Station, Desert Park and back ot town.

A popular full day ride is out to Simpson’s Gap and back. Our electric commuter bikes are ideal for comfort as the bike paths are sealed all the way to Simpson’s Gap. Please be aware it is approx. 24km from the town centre to Simpson’s Gap (one way). We recommend allowing 2-2.5hrs one way, packing a picnic lunch/snacks to enjoy on the cool sand. You can refill water Simpsons Gap.

Please see the MTB trail map for a guide of all the paths clearly marked out (sealed paths are the green dotted lines) - you recieve a free map with every hire.
