The newly established Central West Trail takes cyclists on a loop through New South Wales' Central West Region. There is everything you would expect from rural Australia, including sweeping views, lonely roads and charming towns packed with character, Indigenous history, and relics from the gold rush era. Today, the region exudes the laconic humour, charm, and hospitality for which rural Australia is famous. There is also an abundance of food, drink and accommodation options that are big on quality but low on pretence. During the trip, an escort vehicle and driver will ensure you have peace of mind as you make your way between towns. Picnic lunches will be prepared during the cycle day and their representative offers daily briefings and dinner suggestions. Otherwise, you are free to cycle at your own pace and take in the ever-changing landscape of grazing country, national parks and reserves. They have handpicked accommodations in a combination of country pubs with shared bathrooms and family-run motels with private facilities, friendly hosts and tasty food options. The sense of achievement as you roll into Gulgong to close the loop on the last cycle day is a true highlight on this groundbreaking cycle trail.
