SaveThe ACT is quite rightly labelled as the singletrack capital of Australia. Whilst most of the trails have an XC feel there is something for everyone here.
Stromlo stands out as the jewel in the crown and has hosted World Cups. However there is plenty on offer - and new trail developments taking place - in plenty of other locations.
