About this event
Enjoy a relaxing cycle ride from Federation Square to Port Melbourne, then following Port Phillip Bay to Brighton Beach, and optionally on to Mordialloc. This event is part of Midsumma Festival.
GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Easy 16 km, or Medium 35 km, point-to-point cycling with lunch at Brighton Beach Hotel.Â
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Starting from Federation Square, we'll cycle along Southbank then the trail beside the 109 tram to Port Melbourne. From there we follow the Bay Trail via St Kilda and Elwood to Brighton, where we'll stop for lunch at the Brighton Beach Hotel, overlooking the beach. This is an easy 16 km ride entirely on cycle paths and quite flat. After lunch you can return via train from the Brighton Beach Station, or continue for a further 19 km at a slightly faster pace via the Bay Trail to Mordialloc. From Mordialloc Railway Station trains depart every 10 minutes to either Flinders Street or Frankston Stations.Â
Some leisure cycling experience is advisable. There's a cap on lunch numbers, so book early to ensure you don't miss out!Â
