3. Pedal Powered Monorail

The pedal-powered monorail at Pine Rivers Park operates on a single elevated metal track that encircles a garden maze. Riders sit on fixed plastic bicycles attached to the track and move forward by pedalling. The track weaves through landscaped garden areas, providing views of surrounding greenery.

Smooth concrete pathways connect the monorail to nearby park facilities, with open grassed areas positioned around the attraction. This activity requires continuous pedalling effort to move along the track and is used for active recreation within the park.
