Overview
The Historic Mystery Bay Velodrome, also known as the Corunna Point or Tilba Velodrome, is a lesser-known piece of sporting history on the Eurobodalla South Coast. Dating from the 1890s, it was created by the enthusiastic Corunna Point Cycling Club on Corunna Point near Mystery Bay, jutting out into the Tasman Sea.
A wonderful example of the interests of Australian communities in the late 19th century, it is believed to be one of the few surviving 19th-century cycling velodromes, and the mown grass oval track is still very evident today.
Reach it by a scenic loop track from Mystery Bay, through the camping ground and on to the velodrome. Many tracks in the campground lead to vantage points with spectacular emerald green ocean views, great views of Montague Island and the interesting geology of Mystery Bay. Keep an eye out for native animals that regularly wander through the campground and national park.
When you arrive, ride around the track and become part of history. There is no entry fee with limited parking. Find a beachside picnic area and additional parking at Mystery Bay Reserve.
