Just found these pics i took as part of a photoshoot for a bike shop a few years back...
Not that its a bike trail but we shot this series in Mermaids Cave on Megalong Valley Rd just out of Blackheath... Magic place... especially when it starts raining... the waterfall suddenly just starts roaring...

Ridgewell Rd, just before the old dump.
Morning ride in the upper mountains. Out to hanging rock and back, with side trips to other lookouts if I'm feeling fit.
Upper Mountains Mega-Medley
Best place to meet is probably my place. I'll PM those coming with the address.
Late notice, but I'm going for a local ride this weekend, and wanna put out the invitation.
The Ride
This ride takes place in and around Blackheath, and has a bit of everything:
singletrack, firetrail, steep climbs, waterbars, 60km/h blacktop switchbacks, stunning views, devonshire tea, support crew...
The Basics: Start in Blackheath, Hanging Rock (out & back), Megalong Valley Tea Rooms (lunch/brunch), limousine service back to Blackheath.
Duration: 3 to 4 hours, depending on how many scones you eat.

At 1,065m Blackheath is the highest village along the great western highway (Bell is the only village with in the BMCC area that is higher). There are several options for rides in the area, this description is for the two out and back firetrail rides named Hanging Rock and Anvil Rock - in the one place here as they are so close and similar.
