Cycling in Mt Coot-tha

Riding anti-clockwise, the road climbs up through several kilometers of natural bushland, home to an abundance of native wildlife which can be seen on the way including many beautifully coloured birds. Towards the top of the climb, you can see views out to the west of Brisbane, overlooking more hills, small suburbs and the Brisbane Forest Part including Mt Glorious. Cresting the top, you pass television studios and transmitters belonging to Channels 10, 9,  and 7 as well as the ABC. 

Check this video out. You can see how amazing is the descending at max speed of 65Km/h


If I could say something about the ascending I would say that it is hard, really hard
