THE RIDES

MURRAY TO MOUNTAINS RAIL TRAIL

With over 100kms of sealed off road trails, The Murray to Mountains Rail Trail is the ideal way to discover the diverse landscape of North East Victoria. For those who like to feel the wind in their hair, the short and fun descent from Beechworth to Everton Station is a popular ride, especially with the locals. But remember, what goes down, must come back up!

BEECHWORTH MOUNTAIN BIKE PARK

The mountain biking scene in Beechworth is thriving, with the small but seriously fun and funky mountain bike park, just on the outskirts of town. There is also Flametrees, a cross country loop that parallels the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail, with gullies and cuttings weaving through forest.

ROAD RIDES

Beechworth, by virtue of its hilltop location, delivers some challenging rides for the road rider. Cycle a few kilometres out of Beechworth and you will find some long hills down, which of course need to be ridden back up, unless you are car shuffling. There are some great rides under 30km and longer rides over 70km.
