Self-Guided Cycling Holidays Across Australia: Rail Trails, Wine Regions and Coastal Routes

Australia · 8 days · From AUD 990 (indicative)

The format is simple. You pick a region and a number of days, the operator books your accommodation and moves your luggage from stop to stop, and you ride the route with their tour notes in hand. There is no group to keep up with on the self-guided trips, so you set your own start time and stop where you like.

Routes cover a lot of ground. The Brisbane Valley Rail Trail is Australia's longest rail trail and gets a four-day self-guided trip, or eight days when combined with the Kingaroy to Kilkivan Rail Trail. The Murray to the Mountains Rail Trail runs between Wangaratta and Harrietville over seven days. In NSW, the Central West Cycle Trail takes seven days on rural backroads, and Thirroul to Huskisson covers six days down the South Coast from Wollongong to Jervis Bay.

Grading is stated for every trip. Introductory to Moderate trips like the Southern Highlands Cycle and the Great Victorian Rail Trail suit riders who want quiet roads and gentle days. Moderate trips like the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail and Thirroul to Huskisson step up the distance. Kosciuszko to the Sea and the Great Ocean Road Cycle are graded Moderate to Challenging, with the Kosciuszko trip combining time on the bike with time on foot.

Bikes are part of the setup. The operator runs a dedicated electric bike range, including the Southern Highlands Cycle, and says it has sourced the highest quality bikes for its trips. Accommodation is described as authentic and chosen to match each region.

The operator is Australian and builds its itineraries around places it knows locally, which shows in the route choices: backroads through the Central West, the Camperdown to Port Campbell Rail Trail alongside the Great Ocean Road, and the Northern Rivers Rail Trail loop around Wollumbin out to the Tweed Coast.
