High Country – Tour of Beechworh

Cycling Route

Details
78.61 km
1,234 m
A local classic that gives a 'Black Diamond' rating but don't be turned off by the categorisation. This 80-odd kilometre loop has a little of everything including a lovely cafe stop opportunity in Yakandandah, gentle climbs, fast and open descents plus a challenging climb through the Stanley State Forest – just hard enough to really earn that Beechworth Bakery visit on return to town.
