Located in Central Victoria, the Goldfields Track is a 200km point-to-point route that runs from Ballarat to Bendigo. This off-road journey has historically been a walking track, but it’s also become increasingly popular with mountain bikers. Splitting neatly into a three-day ride, it’s a fantastic adventure that we’ve had the pleasure of undertaking several times since we began riding 25 years ago.
While it is arguably one of the best point-to-point rides in Australia, the Goldfields Track isn’t the only reason you’d visit this part of the world. Following the mountain biking boom, there are bunch of riding spots that have sprouted up along its length, all of which are worthy of further exploration on their own. On top of that, there are some exciting plans for trail development in the near future, highlighting this region’s embrace of all things two-wheeled.
And so with the Goldfields Track as our guide, we decided to team up with some pals to embark on a road trip. The plan was to visit some of the towns and riding destinations along the way to sample the local produce and experience the diversity of riding within the Goldfields region.
