Landscapes, vistas and the villages of Woodstock and Mandurama are a feature of this route, making it a perfect day to capture photos. Riders will enjoy agricultural variety, including cattle, sheep, and alpacas, as well as stunning canola crops in spring or the seasonal cropping of wheat.
River country views are replaced by stunning views over the Lachlan River valley before Mount Canobolas and Mount Macquarie reveal themselves in the last parts of this ride.
There are a combination of sealed and unsealed road surfaces on this route. Gravel and hybrid bikes are probably the best choice for this ride, with most riders choosing tyres above 32mm. Riders on e-bikes will have an advantage on the climbs, however there is limited opportunity to recharge bikes during the ride.
