Biking -- Adelaide's parks and riverbanks are very popular with cyclists. The city bikes scheme allows you free bike hire for use anywhere within the city limits. All you need is either your driver's license, proof of identity card, or passport. Your ID will be held as a deposit for the duration of the hire and will be returned to you when you return your city bike. The Bicycle SA office, 46 Hurtle Square (tel. 08/8232 2644), is open daily and is where to go to pick up your bike. They also have lots of information about where to ride. Recreation SA (tel. 08/8226 7301) publishes a brochure showing Adelaide's bike routes. Pick one up at the South Australia Visitor & Travel Centre.
Golf -- The Adelaide Golf Links (tel. 08/8267 2171) in North Adelaide have great views of the city. Greens fees for the full-size championship course are A$22 (US$20/£10) weekdays and A$27 (US$24/£12) weekends. To play the par-3 course (great for families) costs A$13 (US$11/£6). Club rental is available.
Hiking & Jogging -- The banks of the River Torrens are a good place for a jog. The fit and adventurous might want to tackle the Heysen Trail, a spectacular 1,600km (992-mile) walk through bush, farmland, and rugged hill country that starts 80km (50 miles) south of Adelaide and goes to the Flinders Ranges by way of the Adelaide Hills and the Barossa Valley. For more information on the trail, visit the South Australia Visitor & Travel Centre.
