Itinerary Details

Plan for the day

The tour operator will pick you up in Central Adelaide and transport you to the summit of Mount Lofty, which at 710m is the highest point in the Mount Lofty Ranges, and offers stunning views of Adelaide, the Adelaide hills, and the plains below. From here it is downhill all the way back to Adelaide. After a stop for photos, you will be provided with a good quality mountain bike and helmet, and make sure you are comfortable and happy with your bike.

From the start, it is a short ride though Cleland Conservation park to your first stop of the day, Cleland Wildlife park. A perfect chance to get comfortable on the bike before the big ride. In Cleland Wildlife Park you will have a chance to wander at leisure and feed or pat kangaroos, wallabies, emus and many other native wildlife. You may even have the chance to pat a koala. Here, you’ll have a little morning tea right here while you relax in the natural surrounds. Coffee, tea and cakes/snacks are all included.

After you leave the wildlife park, you will get to enjoy the best part of the whole trip. The ride through Cleland Conservation Park is absolutely stunning. It’s all downhill, and has some fun rough sections, along with other nice flat and fast bits! It’s also an absolute money back guarantee, you WILL see wild koalas as you ride through the park!

After about 10km (6.2mi) you will drop out into the suburbs of Adelaide, and then have a final spin along some quiet backstreets where you will see some lovely houses and suburban parks. Finally you will pop out into the Adelaide parklands at Victoria Park, where you get a great view back up to the summit of Mount Lofty, were you started 4 hours and 18km ago!
