Welcome to the QUEENSLAND RAILS, TRAILS AND COUNTRY LANES Tour

Your late winter cycling escape.

What better way to see off the last month of winter than a cycling escape to Queensland? This tour takes in some beautiful trails and back roads that avoid busy traffic and lets you relax and take it all in. And there is plenty to take in; rolling hills, lakes, rivers, cute country towns, sunny skies, and the birds singing in the trees.

Fully supported, great accommodation, transfers between the trails, tour guides, vehicle back-up, morning tea stops set up along the routes, lunch suggestions, daily briefings so you don’t miss anything, group dinners and a great bunch of fellow cyclists who create an energetic vibe to enjoy the stunning scenery with. 

Grab a friend or two, or come along on your own and meet a few new ones. We look forward to having you with us on our Queensland winter adventure.
