Day 3: Esk to Fernvale (40kms flat)
Enjoy a cafe breakfast in Esk before riding from your accommodation straight onto the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail. Today’s cycling is heading toward Ipswitch in a southerly direction. Keep an eye out for wildlife including koala, echidna, emu and more. The trail is pretty much flat today and provides a new outlook, with sections that feel like rainforest (see image below) and the accompanying symphony of bird calls. The incrediby well restored rail stations on route make great photo opporutnities. Some of the outback scenery is memorable.
We collect you and your bikes at the end of your cycling and transfer you back to Esk, for you to collect your luggage (securely stored) and head off on your onward journey (showers avaiable). Congratulations, you can now proudly declare you have ridden Australia’s longest rail trail.
