Discover Stock Road – Where Fitness, Fun and Koalas Come Together!
Stock Road is more than just a scenic cycle and walkway — it's a vibrant corridor of health, heritage and habitat. Stretching from Links Road to Porcupine Street, this gently sloping route is a favourite with locals and visitors alike.
At each end of the trail, you'll find outdoor gym equipment designed for all ages — free to use and perfect for a morning workout or a stretch in the fresh air. Families will love the dedicated children's bike safety park, complete with intersections, roundabouts, traffic islands, miniature road signs and plenty of seating for a well-earned break. It's a hands-on way for kids to learn road safety while burning off some energy.
Fringed by a double row of majestic gum trees, Stock Road is also a known hotspot for our furry locals — the koalas! While sightings aren't guaranteed, it's a top spot for a bit of koala-spotting, especially in the cooler hours of the day.
And did you know? Stock Road once formed part of the historic north–south overland stock route, used by drovers in the late 1800s to move livestock from Queensland to Sydney. Today, it's a place where nature, recreation and local history all meet — a true gem in Gunnedah's outdoor offering.
