Beechworth is a little hilly, so let’s hop in the car and head down to Everton where the
locals go for an easier ride.
• Head out from Everton along the Great Alpine Road, towards Wangaratta.
• Turn left into Markwood Everton Road.
• Cross the Ovens River and turn right into Markwood-Tarrawingee Road. Follow on to
River Road and carefully cross the Great Alpine Road.
• Do a sharp left into Beechworth-Wangaratta Road, then a sharp right into Boralma
Road.
• Follow until you intercept the Rail Trail. Turn right and then follow the sealed trail down
to White Post Road and back into Everton.

This is not a long ride but there is plenty of hill climbing to give you an appreciation of
Beechworth’s hill top location.
•Start at the roundabout in Beechworth and head north out of town along the

at Old Coach Road.

Way. Follow on to the intersection with Beechworth-Wodonga Road and turn right for
