Exploring the Pacific Coast, Great Divide and Western Slopes – 9 Days

Total riding distance – 1,792 km / 1,114 miles.

Seven riding days of discovering what this part of New South Wales offers: exhilarating roads, breathtaking scenery, nature, animals, and lots of history of mechanical, natural, and human endeavours.

The tour takes you along the Pacific Coast, riding up The Great Dividing Range and onto the Western Slopes. This provides many roads, from twisty mountain ones to open highways. We try to stay off the main highways, though, at times, they are the best way to get you to the next bit of exciting road.

Some of the roads are well-known to local riders. The food stops have been personally chosen for what they offer and their variety.

Below, you will find the daily itinerary.

We look forward to sharing this adventure with you as you discover an Australia you do not know about.
