Giro veloce in bici da Southbank a Alphington

Starting out in the vibrant heart of Southbank, you’ll roll out past Melbourne’s iconic riverside arts precinct, where the city buzzes with energy and skyline views. Almost the entire ride keeps you on smooth, paved surfaces with a sweet mix of asphalt and concrete—so it’s a breeze whether you’re on a roadie or a hybrid.

The route follows mostly dedicated cycleways and quiet roads, making it perfect for a relaxed jaunt or a quick commute. As you cruise north, don’t forget to glance back for some sneaky city skyline photo ops! There’s a little climbing (nothing too crazy—just over 100 meters of total ascent), which keeps the legs honest without breaking a sweat.

Your destination is Alphington, a leafy, laid-back suburb famous for its parks, river trails, and community markets. If time allows, explore Darebin Parklands or grab a coffee at a local cafe. All up, this scenic 17km spin lets you swap city vibes for riverside calm with minimal traffic stress. Happy riding!
