Includes a climbing wall, free play area for kids, and a choice of 3 trails for beginners to adventurous types.
Biking Route
Saddle up for a 16km bike route around the lake, scenic and quiet. Good for beginner cyclists and walkers too. This easy going route that gives you time to enjoy the natural views. It’s all signposted and about 80% car free. At quieter times you’re not going to see a car at all. For escaping the city, this is your best bet. Wanna keep going? There’s another 26km track for mountain biking only.
Walk Away
There’s tons of space for walking around Lake Gileppe, but the lake is also part of 3 walking and hiking trails. Choose from an easy, medium or hard walk to customise your walking path. From 3km to 13.6km, hikers have lots to choose from here. The 3km hard walk might be the shortest, but it’s got the roughest terrain!
