Bundaberg Bike Rides with Kids our Favourites

Take a look at this list we’ve put together of our favourite Bundaberg bike rides with kids. We’ve included our most loved circuit, park, beach side, and bush rides we like to take. Most of these rides could also be done as a pram walk.

Most of the great parks in our area have fantastic paths for bike riding. For younger kids we love Lake Ellen, Boreham, Alexandra and Queens Parks. Each have nice wide tracks set back from the road. We especially love Boreham Park which also includes a little mini bmx track for younger kids.

Almost all of our local beaches have great paths along their esplanades, perfect for bikes, scooters, skates and prams. Our favourites are the stretch from Bargara Turtle Park to Nielsons Park, and the stretches along the Burnett Heads, Elliott Heads and Woodgate esplanades. All are suitable for kids of all ages.

We also love the Bargara Turtle trail which extends from Nielsons Park to Burnett Heads mostly with ocean views. This ride is almost 13km return so not one for younger kids.

Bundaberg Pump Track includes a sealed track with off-road terrain suitable for bikes, skateboards and scooters. Kids of all ages will love this place. Great spot for younger kids when the big kids are at school.

There is a great BMX track at Boreham Park and a smaller one at the Jaycee Park on Barolin Street. Our Wide Bay Kids love both of these locations.

Kids of all ages will love the old skating rink at Nielsons Park Bargara. This large open concrete area is mainly used by younger kids on their bikes or scooters.

Our favourite bush bike rides are at Riverview and Meadowvale Nature Parks. Both parks have nice wide tracks, great for balance bikes and prams with pump up tyres but not suitable if you have kids with training wheels.

We also love the tracks through Baldwin Swamp and some parts of Russo Nature Park. For the more serious rider and older kids there is Cordalba State Forest just outside of Childers which has mountain bike tracks.

We love riding from Baldwin Swamp and ending up at Alexandra Park via the River. We start at the Baldwin Swamp Shelter Shed and weave our way through the park to Lake Ellen crossing the road at the Bywash. We then follow the path down to the cricket grounds and cross the road at the lights at Kendalls Flats.

From here we head along Quay Street behind the old netball courts and cross a small footbridge which brings us out next to the Rowers Club. We then weave our way along the River pushing our bikes on the boardwalk paths before hopping back on again just below Midtown Marina.  From here we head straight to Alexandra Park passing under the traffic bridge on our way. When our Wide Bay Kids were younger we used to walk this circuit with our prams.
