West Coast Park

This a lovely little park entered by either the Wesy Coast Highway by bike or directly from the carparks (there are quite a few). Its a very visual little ride, from my place about 14km return, very low stress once you get off the road.



The park has many bike oriented features, from exercise stops to a cycle obstacle course. The trail itself is designated for bikes but do watch out for the odd jogger or strollers.



The western section pops out onto the bay near to the Polytechnic Marina which makes for some nice late afternoon photos of little fishing boats and the shipyards in the back ground. Quite a few sea going yachts in and out as well.



Rated easy. Has toilets and exercise stations at various intervals. An underpass keeps you off the road when its crossed by a truck turning route.

Would make a good time trial track as well, varied and lush scenery and the track is wide enough to take groups of bikes riding
