Trail surface is a mix of asphalt sections (townships) and rolled fine to course gravel in the other areas. For cycling, the trail surface overall is currently most suitable for MTB and hybrid bikes – although flat bar racers with sufficiently wide tyres would be fine.

In 2015, the extension from Axedale to Heathcote was opened, resulting in a good quality path of 50 km from Bendigo to Heathcote.

We travel through box-ironbark and yellow gum woodland, along with farmland.
