Outback Cycling 2 Day Tour
Day 1
Join your tour guide and group at 10:30am with your bike. Straight from the shop, you’ll ride out onto the epic single track snaking around the edge of urban Alice Springs, leading you out East towards Emily Gap. Wind back to the Telegraph Station for a quick rest and 20 minute tour of the original Alice Springs township. Enjoy your complimentary lunch and coffee provided by the Trail Station Café. After lunch, continue by bike on the undulating trails heading towards the famous West MacDonnell Ranges. Finish the day with a memorable outback sunset as you arrive at your designated bush camp. Experience a true Aussie dinner, cooked by your support guide in a camp oven over coals. With your mates around the fire, under a blanket of stars you will laugh and reminisce of the fantastic day. When you’re ready, retire for the night into your personal swag.
Day 2
Wake to the natural sounds of the bush. Your hot breakfast is prepared atop the campfire embers. we’ll hit the trails once again and stop for morning tea. As we head back to Alice Springs, we’ll stop in at a local’s café for some good grub before finally returning to our hotel where our tour ends.
