Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Docklands à Deer Park

This ride takes you from Melbourne’s vibrant Docklands out to the suburb of Deer Park, covering just over 25 km. You’ll start right on the waterfront in Docklands, a buzzing area packed with restaurants and public art—great for a quick pre-ride coffee.

Rolling out, you’ll spend most of your time on proper cycleways (about 78% of the route) so it’s a stress-free spin, perfect for anyone looking to avoid traffic. The path is largely paved, switching up between smooth concrete and classic asphalt. You get a gentle ascent overall—nothing too dramatic—making this a good option for an easy commute or a leisurely weekend trip.

As you move into the outer suburbs, you’ll end in Deer Park, a quietly growing pocket of Melbourne known for its parks and friendly, residential vibe. With only minor elevation changes, this route makes for a chill, enjoyable ride that connects the city’s urban edge with its greener, more relaxed outskirts. Bring your camera: Docklands has some fantastic cityscape views to kick off the trip!
