Natural Attractions

A visit to Woolgoolga is not complete without exploring the stunning coastline to the north. The best way to appreciate the coastal strip is on a bike.

Discover three unique headlands and five amazing beaches providing tranquil locations with spectacular views.

The ride may vary in length from 12kms to 22km return. Whilst the ride is all about the views there is some great single track and a huge variety of terrain.

Families and expert mountain bikers will all enjoy these great trails set in a beautiful coastal environment.

Starting from the Woolgoolga Beach reserve you ride through town, past the café strip, and turn right on Wharf St. This continues into Lake Rd and then over the footbridge at Woolgoolga Lake.

A leisurely pedal gives you time to enjoy this place where the estuary meets the sea. It’s a diverse and dynamic environment offering a taste of the biodiversity found in the region.

The bridge spills you out onto Melaleaucia Rd where you quickly join the bike path around the sports fields. As the path turns west continue onto Lake Trail on your right.

Lake Trail is a highlight of the ride as you hug the edge of the lake through bushland. The trail runs to Safety Beach where it rises above the coastline and gives you your first glimpse of the northern beaches.
