Adelaide for Easter -- Adelaide hills route recommendations

Postby shanelee007 » Sun Mar 28, 2021 6:15 pm

Hi all,

I am bringing my road bike down to adelaide for the weekend. I am looking for a route around adelaide hills.

I enjoy doing some climbing and taking in the scenery that adelaide has to offer. Less traffic the better! That i know is subjective based on the time you leave but i will try to leave in the morning around 7AM. My wife and I have an airbnb in north adelaide so will start from there.

I did see this route on the forum:
https://www.strava.com/routes/11314487

Anything around the 800-1000m elevation mark and 60-70k. I have hit some hills in melbourne over the past six months (did kinglake this weekend). I prob regard myself as a mid-range cyclist so no category 1s or 2s (unless it is doable!)

Thanks,
Shane

i ended up creating my own route. Was my fav ride so far in Aus. https://www.strava.com/routes/2811957304511742846 you could easily extend this if you like to do mount lofty and the gorge but i was happy with this.
