The Active Transport Action Plan has identified priority infrastructure projects to create a high-quality connected walking and cycling network in the area. Among the popular cycleways is the Ryde to Botany Bay Cycleway, a 23-kilometer path starting at Settlers Park in Ryde, passing through Gough Whitlam Park, and finishing at Botany Bay. Along the cycleway, you'll find plenty of parks with barbecue spots and picnic areas, perfect for a relaxing break during your ride.
In addition to the Ryde to Botany Bay Cycleway, there are two more notable paths worth exploring. The Cooks River bicycle path extends from Punchbowl Road to Gough Whitlam Park, while the M5 bicycle path stretches from Salt Pan Creek to King Georges Road, with a proposed extension to Waterworth Park. These paths offer scenic views and a chance to immerse yourself in nature while indulging in your fitness routine.
