After picking up your bikes from us at Katoomba YHA, you ride yourself to start of the Narrowneck Plateau trail (this is a bit of an adventure itself). There are some challenging climbs that are best walked, but the views and downhills make it all worth it! Breathtaking vistas are a way to sum up this ride.
The spectacular Narrow Neck trail follows a ridgeline deep into the valley, offering exhilarating scenic views across the Megalong Valley in the world heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park.
Setting out from Katoomba, a quick ride from town will take you off the tarmac and deep into the undulating trails of this unspoilt wilderness area.
While there are a few short sharp hills that will test out your stamina, the phenomenal views are more than ample reward to keep you going. Plus as this ride is an ‘out and back’ route, the climbs you ride up on the way out transform into exhilarating descents on your return trip.
On the way back into town, hook onto the Cliff Drive Tourist route to soak in some more magical views – Echo Point and the Three Sisters are must-see stops to round out a day you’ll never forget.
