Lake Wendouree Loop Ride
See the highlights of central Ballarat on two wheels! Ride around two of the city’s most iconic outdoor spaces – Lake Wendouree and Victoria Park.
The Lake Wendouree loop is 10km return with a gentle grade suitable for all levels of riding experience. The trail starts opposite Ballarat Railway Station. You’ll follow quiet back streets before joining a gravel shared path around the lake, returning along a dedicated off-road shared path down the middle of historic Sturt Street.
Minimal road crossings means this ride is family-friendly and there’s more time to take in the views!
There’s numerous cafes and attractions to enjoy along the way. Plus, if you’re riding on the 2nd or 4th Saturday of the month, you can stop by the farmers’ market. Picnic sorted!
Allow 1.5 – 2 hours for the main lake loop (return), with extra time for refreshments and photo stops.
If you’re feeling energetic, there are also options to extend your ride around Victoria Park, out to the Arch of Victory or even along the Ballarat-Skipton Rail Trail.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities.
These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.
We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years.
As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
