Road Cycling
The Great Alpine Road, the highest bitumen through-road in Australia is a great place for incredibly scenic road cycling sessions in summer, particularly for those competitive riders wishing to engage in altitude training.
Easy
A simple ride between Dinner Plain and Mount Hotham is a great way to experience alpine cycling without slogging it out on the extreme climbs. Enjoy a 24km-return pedal along the iconic Great Alpine Road, with gentle undulations.
Difficult
For riders looking for a seriously intense challenge, choose one of the 7 Peaks climbs. Dinner Plain is the perfect base to ride either the Omeo to Dinner Plain climb or the Harrietville to Hotham climb.
Gravel
For a seriously enjoyable gravel ride, explore The Brabralung Trail from Dinner Plain to Mount Hotham. The 26km-return ride takes you along a purpose-build gravel shared path with beautiful views along undulating terrain. The trail is best ridden between November and May. When the snow falls, The Brabralung Trail becomes a groomed cross-country ski trail.
