AMBC Mountain Bike Tour - Blue Mountains
Newnes, Blue Mountains
Located 2-3 hours from Sydney, take this opportunity to explore some fantastic trails in the company of like-minded people. Designed with a social focus, this tour will allow you to see some sights you wouldn't normally get to see on your bike!
Based near the haunting ghost town of Newnes, our tour will explore the beauty and vista of the Blue Mountains Range. With the first recce of the area completed, we've uncovered a treasure of sweet flowing singeltrack through canyons, the Wolgan River and around the Newnes plateau, and to say the team finished this recce with a smile on their face is an understatement!
This "Adventure Ride" tour will be centred around the Wolgan campsite and will give you the opportunity to experience the breathtaking beauty and sites of a bygone era. Rides will be targeted at novice to intermediate levels but if demand exists, we will also be catering for advanced riders and may also offer an expedition to find the Lost City. The ride program for Sunday will allow an early afternoon finish so that people can beat the traffic home in the afternoon.
And don't forget ... you don't necessarily need to be a rider to come along. Non-riders or those inclined to make this as much a sightseeing exercise as an adventure can also check out the local sights including the Glow Worm Tunnel, the cafes & restaurants along the Bells Line of Road and the heritage of Newnes that includes the old Newnes Hotel, the coke ovens and the old railway line.
Included:
- Campsite (tents can be hired)
- All meals
- Scenic tours

- A fun social-minded weekend
Included as part of the tour, AMBC will provide meals for Saturday and Sunday, and accommodation for Friday & Saturday nights. All rides are fully guided by experienced leaders who will there to ensure everyone has a great time!

Just a heads up, while the cycling is fan-bloody-tastic there is a max group size of 12 allowed within Wollemi NP and no cycling in the wilderness zone unless otherwise approved.
Hey Flynny
Thanks for the heads up. All approvals already in place so no probs with us being there!

Hey Flynny,
I know the area around Bungleboori very well from 4wding ( many years ago).
I'd be very grateful if you could send some details as to where to find the tracks.
Cheers
