City Escape — No car required

0 thumbs up | Rate it

If you’re a cyclist yearning for wide open spaces grab a train from Melbourne to Ballan, cycle the Parwan Valley Grasslands Tour (40kms) or the Werribee Gorge Tour (24kms) to Bacchus Marsh and head home via the train to Melbourne. 

From Ballan its flat landscapes then dramatically downhill. Looking for more of a mountain climb challenge? Then reverse the trip and start from Bacchus Marsh.

Either way, make sure you take a loop through the Avenue of honour and stop at one of the roadside fresh produce stalls to top up on supplies and refreshments. 

Please visit V/Line for train times and connections.
