Wagga Wagga is located approximately 5 hours from Sydney, 5 hours from Melbourne, 2.5 hours from Canberra and 2 hours from Beechworth in the Riverina. The Murrumbidgee River runs right past our main street. Wagga has a rich sporting background with many national and international sport-stars establishing their sporting careers in Wagga Wagga.
As Mountain Bikers, we have access to many great riding locations including Pomingalarna reserve, Willans Hill, Livingstone National Park, The Wiradjuri trail, Plum Pudding reserve, Tumut bike track, just to name a few. Many of these areas offer great single trail riding through native bushland.
