STAGE 3

First 35 km is fun and fast relatively flat purpose built gravel bike path named the Rail Trail.
Upon arrival at Atherton we’ll pass through the Atherton MTB Club Skills park and short section of single track known as the Link Trail.
Then the climb of Mt Baldy begins. 7-8 km at approx 10% average winding through the Baldy Mountain Forest Reserve.
Short decent before a sharp turn into the Walsh River Track that has a number of pitchy rocky up and downs.
First glimpse of the outback with a few kilometres along a dry and dusty Powerline Track before turning onto wide dirt roads for the last few kilometres
Finishing at the Wondecla Sporting Grounds, home for the next two nights.
