Barossa Trail
The Barossa Trail is a 40 kilometres (25 mi) cycling and walking path through the Barossa Valley in South Australia. Until 2019 the 27km between Gawler and Tanunda was named the Jack Bobridge Track. The Jack Bobridge Track was named after Jack Bobridge, a cyclist grew up in the area. It was opened on 22 May 2014. Following Bobridge's imprisonment in July 2019 for dealing recreational drugs, the Barossa Council changed its name to the Barossa Trail, which was already the name for the shared path from Tanunda through Nuriootpa and on the former railway route to Angaston. Much of the Barossa Trail follows the Barossa Valley railway line but is not a rail trail as part of the railway was still operating at the time it was built. As it is not on the railway formation it has more undulations than a true rail trail would have. The part near Rowland Flat is away from both the railway and main road. It has much sharper corners than would be expected on a rail trail.
