Whether you’re after a relaxed family ride, a scenic bushwalk, or a longer adventure on the Darling Downs, there are plenty of trails close to BIG4 Toowoomba Holiday Park to keep you active and inspired.
West Creek Reserve and Bicentennial Bikeway
This popular pathway weaves right through Toowoomba, linking several parks and green spaces. The West Creek Reserve Bikeway stretches for more than eight kilometres, following the creek from Alderley Street through to the southern suburbs.
It’s perfect for all levels as the bikeway is wide, mostly flat, and well-shaded with picnic areas and playgrounds dotted along the way. Families can stop for a rest at Lake Annand Park, while seasoned riders can continue on toward Clewley Park for a longer route.
Toowoomba Rail Trail (Nielson Park to Wilsonton)
A favourite among locals, the Toowoomba Rail Trail follows the route of the old rail corridor, offering a safe and scenic ride through parkland and quiet suburban streets. It’s ideal for leisurely cycling or a gentle morning jog, and its sealed paths make it accessible for kids and prams too.
You’ll pass open green spaces, shaded picnic spots, and dog-friendly areas, so everyone in the family can enjoy the ride — even four-legged friends on leash.
Jubilee Park and Redwood Park Trails
If you’re after something more adventurous, head east to Jubilee Park or Redwood Park, both located on the edge of the Great Dividing Range. These areas offer a mix of mountain bike trails and walking tracks surrounded by native bushland.
The Jubilee Park Trail Network includes easy, intermediate, and advanced routes, from smooth fire roads to single-track climbs with rewarding valley views. It’s a local favourite for mountain bikers and hikers looking to get close to nature without venturing too far from town.
Picnic Point Lookout Walks
For a gentle ride or a scenic stroll, Picnic Point is a must. Enjoy sweeping views of the Lockyer Valley, explore the Pardalote Walk, or take the Picnic Point Circuit Trail through shaded bushland. These short, well-marked tracks are ideal for families with young children or visitors wanting a relaxed outdoor experience.
Finish your visit with coffee or lunch at the Picnic Point Café, one of Toowoomba’s most popular spots to refuel and take in the view.
