Itinerary
The tour starts with a 15 minute shuttle to the village of Fern Tree; this is where you join the Pipeline Track.
From Fern Tree, it's a very gentle climb up the Pipeline Track, so gentle, it's almost flat. It's 13km to the highest point on the trail, then it's time to turn around and enjoy a 20km descent through endless forest, stop off at the the waterfall, and maybe the Fern Tree Tavern for some refreshment.
The trail pops out on the edge of the city, and the ride concludes with a 1km road ride through historic South Hobart, finishing back at our shop.
