3 Gorges

Cycling Route

Mountain goats love the 3 Gorges loop, which has riders climbing around 1,800m of elevation. Not for the faint of heart, this ride will test even the fittest racers by the time they reach the third gorge. With light car traffic and heavy cyclist traffic, you're guaranteed to have someone to race up the ascents if you so choose. Both scenic and challenging, it is no wonder why 3 Gorges is one of the most popular rides in Sydney.
