Manly is a suburb of northern Sydney. Manly Dam is ideal for those seeking for off-road mountain bike experience.

This spot, thanks to the diversity of its terrains, is one of the most popular destinations in Sydney. It is appropriate for intermediate and advanced riders and offers a good mix of single tracks and fire-trails. It provides with many starting points along the way, but the most common one is on the corner of King and Arana Street, where you can park your car near the entrance.

It is a short trail, around 11 km/6 mi, but it has some stunning views over Manly and the Ocean. The best period to go is in spring and summer, but not after a heavy rainfall.

Riders are able to enjoy their meal in one of four picnic areas. Bear in mind that Warringah Council has laid down biking codes of conduct .
