Overview

Inland from Port Stephens, away from the beaches and coastal tracks and closer to Newcastle Airport, you'll find the two towns of Raymond Terrace and Medowie. They're separated by the Grahamstown Dam, which boasts a cycleway along its southern shoreline. It's an easy 11-kilometre ride that is entirely off-road, so you can take your time and make multiple stops whenever you need.

The path starts at the Lakeside Leisure Centre and passes by the Finnan Park Picnic Area, which has toilet facilities and a barbecue if you need a rest — or you can keep pedalling onward to the Grahamstown Aquatic Centre, which has a couple of outdoor picnic tables. Finally, you'll arrive in the small town of Medowie, home to Medowie Macadamias farm.
