Description

Starting from above Roxburgh Dam, riders soon enter the Roxburgh Gorge, with bluffs rising almost 350m on either side of the river at its most dramatic point. Gold-mining history plays a big part in the attraction of this trail, with many remnants to be seen.The middle section of this trail is currently not accessible by bike, so there is a 12km boat trip down the river before riders continue on their bikes.The trail ends at the Aloexandra.
