Local directions from David & Suzanna · Updated 2026
Echuca Moama is one of the best places in regional Victoria for easy, scenic cycling. Mostly flat, excellent river views, coffee or wine without riding far. These five are suitable for most fitness levels — especially on an e-bike.
Echuca Scenic Trail
About 5 km loop · Easy · all ages
A gentle riverside loop that shows off the Murray and Campaspe meeting. Native bushland, kangaroos on quiet mornings, kookaburras, and paddle steamers on the river.
Start near Victoria Park on Crofton Street. The path is well signposted — mostly sealed or smooth gravel.
After the ride: Wren Courtyard Café or the Port Ice Creamery on High Street. Families often finish at Hopwood Gardens.
Ride to St Anne’s Winery & 3 Black Sheep
About 10 km return · Easy
Start on Murray Esplanade in the historic Port, cross into Moama, and follow quiet tracks to St Anne’s for a complimentary tasting. Coffee or a meal at 3 Black Sheep on the way.
Detours to Moama Beach and Horseshoe Lagoon. The return over Dhungala Bridge is the river view everyone photographs.
Riverbank Restaurant Ride (Moama)
About 10 km · Easy
Over the bridge into Moama on shared tracks and quiet streets to Riverbank Restaurant & Café inside Moama Waters Holiday Park. Proper Murray outlook, cakes worth the ride.
Almost entirely sealed or good gravel — works on a standard bike or e-bike. Check weekend hours and book ahead if you can.
Banyule Forest Ride
Flexible · Easy to moderate
Start behind the Echuca Aquatic Reserve on Heygarth Street and head into Banyule Forest. Winding tracks; one of the nicest follows the Murray to Chinamen’s Bend — a quiet sandy bank, paddle boarders drifting past.
Return via Middle Track or the levee. Longer outing: continue to Cape Horn Winery. Coffee after: The Bee Keeper’s Table on High Street.
Campaspe River Ride
About 5 km · Easy · great for families
Start at Lions Park on Campaspe Esplanade (off Ogilvie Avenue). Sealed shared path through bushland, footbridges and birdlife — including possum glider nesting boxes.
At Warren Street Bridge you can cross, loop back, or continue toward Dhungala Bridge into Moama. Bell handy — walkers and joggers share the path. Finish at Moama Bakery in Crossenvale Village if you’re that side.
