“Great cycle trail suitable for everyone in a truly lovely part of Australia”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2010

people found this review helpful

We have ridden this cycle track several times and it is a great holiday in a lovely area. The old railway tracks have been removed and turned into a cycle, walking, horse riding track that goes for 90 kilometers through very lovely country side. The track is flat and you see riders of all ages and sizes riding along at their own pace. The rail trail is in the Victorian highlands and close to the snow fields and in Summer this area has some wonderful heavy duty muntain road cycling and mountain bike track riding for the fit and adventurous types.

When we go we rent one of the many charming little houses available and base ourselves there and drive to whatever part of the track we want to ride that day. It is also possible to start at one end and stay in several of the charming little towns along the track if you want to carry your belongings with you.

The area is popular with tourists in the snow and warmer seasons as it is quite beautiful and close to the snow fields. While it isnt toutisty, it is well set up to cater to tourists with different budgets. It is also part of a gourmet trail and in a wine growing area with several very good wineries with nice cellar doors perfect for whiling away a few hours between rides.
