Southern Highlands Loop from Motorway

RIDE CANCELLED

Particularly suited to an in-passing ride, while transitting between Sydney and somewhere further south. However, the loop could be started at any of the towns en route.

A/c undulating loop, mainly backroads. Through Sutton Forest to Exeter for coffee option after just 11+km.

On to quaint Bundanoon, then back past Exeter a different way.

North to Moss Vale, then mainly scenic paths and backstreets to Bowral @ 46km (lunch options).

Some climbing to historic Berrima @58km (lunch options). Then mainly downhill and mild undulations.

Ends with 1km on motorway shoulder.

Notes: Start-place and -time to suit riders driving back towards Sydney from Canberra.But COULD be a day-trip for a Sydney rider.
