City & Riverfront Routes
1. Riverside Path: South Bank to New Farm
Start at the iconic South Bank riverside promenade, weaving past lush parklands and swim lagoons. Continue along the Brisbane River cycleway through Howard Smith Wharves—the perfect spot to stop for a coffee break or a scenic river photo. From here, follow the waterside path all the way to New Farm Park, a leafy oasis with colourful gardens and picnic settings.

The Segway F3 is a superb choice for this route. Its 1000 W motor and 70 km range give you plenty of juice for extended rides, while dual suspension and IPX6 waterproofing ensure a smooth, weather-ready journey—even after a sudden summer shower.
2. City Botanic Gardens Loop
Head upstream from the CBD and follow the riverside path along the City Botanic Gardens. This route is flat, scenic, and packed with native trees and picnic spots. Stop for a rest near the ornamental pond or explore the Fortitude Valley end for local coffee hotspots.
Top scooter pick:
The Segway E2 is light, compact, and well-suited to this urban loop. With a top speed of 20 km/h and up to 25 km range—perfect for last-mile commuting—its 8-inch puncture-proof tyres are ideal.
Park Trails & Suburban Backroads
3. Kedron Brook Bikeway
Grab your scooter at Kalinga Park and head west along the Kedron Brook Bikeway. This mostly flat trail, lined with trees and local reserves, runs through a variety of neighbourhoods—great for discovering hidden cafés or friendly weekend markets along the way.
Top scooter pick:
The Segway MAX G3 is built for longer suburban rides, boasting an 80 km range and 2,000 W max power—ideal if you’re planning a full-day exploration of ever-changing parkland.
4. Mount Coot-tha Circuit
Fancy a hillier adventure? Head to Mount Coot-tha Botanic Gardens. Use your scooter to explore paved gardens up the hill, then cruise the nearby scenic roads. The route includes moderate gradients and rewards you with sweeping views over the city and beyond.
Top scooter pick:
For tackling inclines with confidence, the Segway GT3 is a great choice. Its 2,400 W motor and 95 km range provide strong uphill performance and plenty of endurance for looped rides or returns to base.
Off‑Road Exploring
5. River Loop & Bulimba Trails
Combine riding along the river with light off-road adventure at Bulimba Creek. Start by the river's edge, then venture into the shared-use paths through parklands, passing under leafy bridges and fields. Great for weekend rides mixed with a riverside coffee at Bulimba or Hawthorne.
Top scooter pick:
Ready for a bit more rough-and-tumble? The Segway ZT3 Pro, with its dual telescopic suspension and 11-inch tubeless off-road tyres, is built for confident cruising across both paved and gravel paths.
