Tour ID: 10023361

Experience a totally different adventure in Adelaide! Mountain bike off-road from the summit of Mount Lofty.

We will pick you up from Central Adelaide, and transport you to the summit of Mount Lofty, which at 710m is the highest point in the Mount Lofty Ranges, and offers stunning views of Adelaide, the Adelaide hills, and the plains below. From here it is downhill all the way back to Adelaide!

After a taking in the scenic views from the top of Mount Lofty, we will provide you with a good quality mountain bike and helmet, and make sure you are comfortable and happy with your bike. It is then a short ride though Cleland Conservation park to our first stop of the day, Cleland Wildlife park. Here you will have a chance to wander at leisure and feed or pat kangaroos, Wallabies, emus and many other native wildlife. You may even have the chance to pat a koala.

After a little morning tea, it is then time to continue our descent down to Adelaide. We are the only Tour Operator permitted to bring riders into Cleland Conservation Park, which is normally closed to all cyclists. We will gradually descend though the park on gentle meandering 4wd trails, but there is always sections to test your spirit of adventure if you wish. We ride through stunning natural bush, and prehaps see more koalas or kangaroos in their native environment, along with more stunning views of Adelaide.

Finally we will cruise though the quiet back streets and parks of Adelaide to the end of our trip in Central Adelaide.
