Ride Details
The route is predominately a beginner hill climber's ride starting in Gawler and finishing in Gawler.

The first section of the route, however, is flat and passes through Muno Para, Blakeview and eventually Craigmore via Adams Rd, where the first long steady climb starts on Yorktown Road. The climbing continues with a left turn onto Black Top Rd which leads to the township of One Tree Hill.

The visit to One Tree Hill is only fleeting as a left turn onto Cornishmans Hill Road starts the climbing again, eventually reaching The Gawler-One Tree Hill Road via a short section of Uley Road. A left turn onto Kentish Road begins the final downhill run into Gawler which completes the ride.

IMPORTANT

The Gawler Wheelers Group Ride Guidelines and Group Ride Recommendations must be read prior to attending a Group Ride Event.
