Dalby Forest has been and still is one of my favourite places to visit, and I have been visiting here since I was a young child.

If you want to cycle in Dalby Forest, I fully suggest exploring on a bike. It’s so much fun. You can bring your own or you can hire one from the Dalby Cycle Hub. They have routes that suit all abilities and you can even challenge yourself on those difficult routes or have an easy and calm route while absorbing the scenery.

Dalby Forest even has such a long history with a few finds of ancient burial mounds where they have found arrowheads, stone tools and bronze spearheads.
When they first started to build the forest, they were planting 1200 trees a day which equals to 1700 trees to the acre.
For exercise, Dalby also encourages running with trails and events throughout the year.

Special Thanks also to Zoe Searson who was my second camera woman at Dalby 🙂
