Geocache Description:


Top 10 Bikepacking trails

Bikepacking is the combination of mountain biking and minimalist camping. It provides the freedom of multi-day backcountry mountain bike riding. It’s about exploring places less traveled, both near and far, via singletrack trails, gravel, and abandoned dirt roads, carrying only the essential gear. Ride, eat, sleep, repeat, enjoy!

6,250 kilometres down the eastern regions of Australia starting at Cape York, the northern tip of Australia and finishing at Wilsons Promontory the southern most mainland point. The race route is North to South - there is no other option.

For those who are time poor or aren't confident of taking on the whole challenge the race route is broken into five legs and riders can register for one or more legs.

The Terra Australis route is suitable for experienced multi-day ultra endurance riders who have a demonstrated capacity of racing and enduring the constant daily challenges, dealing with the elements and one's changing emotional space. In addition, they need to have the knowledge and capacity to prepare, plan and execute their ride with a clear understanding of their personal needs to remain hydrated and fuelled to undertake and complete the ride without any outside support other than that which is available to any fellow competitor from commercial business providers or public facilities along the route.
