A big day out for most. Lots of easier linking sections on road or canal make the mileage seem high. Go prepared for all types of terrain and weather. Includes a section of the Mary Townley Loop and can have a detour into Hurstwood man made trail. Lots of locally famous singletrack and trail sections.
