Test yourself on this long gravel ride loop past historic gold rush landmarks and through the Mount Barambogie State Forest and Chiltern-Mount Pilot National Park.
Starting in Eldorado or Wangaratta, pedal smooth gravel roads through native bushland and historic sites. If you're starting in Wangaratta, you can start from the Murray to Mountains Trailhead.
This intermediate route offers a sense of tranquility while remaining close to civilization. The terrain is predominantly rolling, passing through grazing lands, and includes a moderate but notable climb within Mount Barambogie State Forest.
