888 km, One Way, Flat, Hilly in Flinders Ranges, Medium/Hard, Remote, Sealed/Unsealed,

The Mawson Trail showcases everything the region North of Adelaide has to offer, such as the Adelaide Hills, Barossa winery region and the Flinders Ranges.

Enjoy the meandering route which seems to mimic the indecisive trail an ant might take. The trail uses quiet country roads, fire trails and tracks through farms, National Parks and State Parks. It can be a challenge for the cycle tourer as the track is narrow in places but the journey is well worth the odd walk and push. In the wet some of the tracks can become very muddy and we have mapped a few alternate routes.

You may be lucky to see kangaroos and emus as you journey though the Flinders Ranges.

Start: Gorge Road, Castambul End: Blinman
