An easy ride along an old Rail way track.

 

Description

An old rail way track that has been converted to a purpose built cycle track.

Suitable for most kinds of bike, the rail trail offers an easy, flat ride over a gravel surface.

A word of warning: The track is very exposed, and offers no shelter: Attempting in a southerly or other strong winds will ruin your day.

The track starts a little distance from Little River - so some road riding is required. The traffic isn't too bad and the rest of the ride will be car free...
