At only an hour from Melbourne, the Kinglake - Captains Ride advanced loop offers an idyllic countryside gravel escape. Roll out if Kinglake township on a dedicated gravel bike path, past views of Melbourne in the far distance. You'll soon leave civilisation behind as you traverse lush Mt Robertson State Park's well-formed bush tracks that throw up both smooth gravel and more rutted technical challenges. Celebrate your ride with a glass of vino at Philip Lobley Wines.
