Trail Overview
Getting to the trail
Please follow these markers along the trail
Before you travel, check the latest weather conditions for fire and flood warnings. Regular fire warning updates can be accessed through the CFA website at warnings.cfa.vic.gov.au. Do not ride on Code Red Fire Warning days.
Cutting through the heart of historic gold mining country, this iconic ride connects picturesque townships, quiet forests and gentle undulating pastoral land. There are sweeping views across to extinct volcanos and sections traverse historic tracks cut for the Cobb & Co coaches over 150 years ago.
North to Talbot, 25kmsAs you ride along tree-lined country lanes, watch as the red volcanic soil from extinct volcano, Mt Beckworth, changes as you near the tranquillity of eucalypt forest. Cockatoos, parrots and other noisy birds are your only company once you are immersed in the shade of these magnificent, and important wildlife habitat trees.
South to Creswick, 24kmsToday’s ride is distinguished by sweeping views across farming land, to historic homesteads and vineyards – yes, some offer cellar door visits. It is mostly open country riding in the company of sheep and cockatoos. The final descent into Creswick is exhilarating and a great way to finish the day.
