Bike paths around Melbourne have been developed over many decades. Many off-road trails follow current or former watercourses, such as the Darebin Creek Trail and the Koonung Creek Trail and traverse long distances, meaning that responsibility for planning and maintenance is split between various State Government authorities and local councils.With the increased recognition from all levels of government of the benefit of cycling activities, Melbourne today has a relatively well-developed network of shared bicycle trails along its river and creek systems and alongside freeways and railways.

| - Bike paths around Melbourne have been developed over many decades. Many off-road trails follow current or former watercourses, such as the Darebin Creek Trail and the Koonung Creek Trail and traverse long distances, meaning that responsibility for planning and maintenance is split between various State Government authorities and local councils.With the increased recognition from all levels of government of the benefit of cycling activities, Melbourne today has a relatively well-developed network of shared bicycle trails along its river and creek systems and alongside freeways and railways. The length of the trails in Melbourne, as of 2014, totals around 1,900 km. It is possible to cycle from Werribee in the west to Research in the east (approx 62 km) and Craigieburn in the north and Seaford in the south (about 78 km) and points in between and only have to travel on the occasional piece of road. Melbourne's bike paths are often accessed from its train system. Ongoing community campaigns, such as those of Bicycle Network, have resulted in some expansion and improvement of the network. (en)
