Read more about this trail

Get a group of friends together, plan a few days exploring the picturesque route that takes you all over the region, incorporating the iconic Koi Kyeunu-ruff / Stirling Range. Take in beautifully quiet farmland, historic railway villages and big landscapes teeming with native birdlife, as you cycle along gravel roads. 

Visiting eight towns along the route, and with many more within close proximity, you won’t need to carry all your supplies for the trip with you – there are plenty of food and accommodation options along the way.

Designed to be ridden on gravel bikes, but equally accessible by mountain bikes, the trail allows long distance riding over multiple days on non-technical, low traffic gravel roads. 

Tackle the trail in one go, or try it one section at a time. Either way, add it to your gravel riding bucket list!
