Canberra is no longer a hidden gem that locals are keeping to themselves! It is the place for food, wine, major attractions and unique outdoor experiences like nowhere else, and all in the one spot. Pair that with a great cycling destination and activities for the whole family, its not surprising why tourists keep coming back.
So whether its a weekend or a week, make the most of your next visit to Canberra and include University of Canberra Stromlo Forest Park (UC Stromlo) on your itinerary. The Park itself connects our mountain bikers, hikers and walkers to the famous 145km Canberra Centenary Trail and our equestrian visitors to the Bicentennial National Trail. Being part of these famous trails and closely located to ACT’s biggest tourist attractions and national cultural institutions, UC Stromlo, has become a very popular place for domestic and international visitors to Canberra.
