Memorials and meanings

Learn all about the memorials along Anzac Parade and the northern shoreline of Lake Burley Griffin on this stop-start guided slow ride. Discover who made and designed them, and why.

We'll stop at memorials to various wars, structures that honour the people who served in them in various ways, and also see memorials to police services, emergency services, and the merchant navy.

We'll meet at the front steps of the National Convention Centre Canberra, on Constitution Ave. The tour's final memorial will be the National Police Memorial on Wendouree Drive, and then we'll stop for lunch at the On Lake Cafe, Bowen Park. This tour will not visit the Australian War Memorial.

NOTE: This ride features a gentle incline up Anzac Parade, where there is rough gravel in front of several memorials. Our route will be mostly on wide paths.
