Mount Wellington Descent -
Breakout Cycling Tours

The ride of a lifetime and spectacular views. We take you to the summit of Mt Wellington (1270m). Take in the views from the distant mountain ranges of the South West, to the panorama or Hobart below. After a safety briefing we begin out descent down Mount Wellington, stopping several times to take in the varying views.

The alpine terrain gradually changes, being replaced by a magnificent forest. The winding mountain road takes us down to the foothills and through the outer suburbs, finally arriving at the Historic Salamanca Place, on the waterfront of Hobart. We supply 18 speed mountain bikes and helmets in a range of sizes, for your comfort and safety.

Free pick up in Hobart area.

Itinerary

We pickup around Hobart and transport you to the summit of Mt Wellington. After fitting you to an appropriate sized bike, adjusting the helmet and a safety briefing we start our down hill ride. We usually finish the ride at Salamanca Place but other finish points can be arranged for group bookings. Total time allowed is approx. 3-4 hrs from pickup to conclusion; it depends on how fast you ride.

Equipment

It is advisable to have warm clothing available, as it can be cold on the top of Mt Wellington; we can supply polarfleece tops, sprayjackets and gloves if you require. Bikes and helmets are supplied.
