Castlemaine Weekend

  • After another long break we are back for another weekend of cycling in country Victoria.

  • Castlemaine is the new home of Pedal Pedal and we are very pleased to be able to take you on two lovely rides in the historic Central Goldfields region.

  • The two rides will be on a mix of surfaces. We will ride sealed roads around the back roads of the goldfields on the Saturday and ride the unsealed Rail Trail to Maldon on the Sunday.

  • Castlemaine is located under 2 hours north of Melbourne so easy to reach but also worth staying a few extra days if you have time.

  • Book your own accommodation. We recommend the Castlemaine Gardens Holiday Park for caravan, cabins and campsites. There are also hotels and motels in town as well as the AirBnB at The Paddock where Jason, Fhon and Jasmine are now living.
