Paved Surface

A short, tight crossing between Bright and Tawonga, one of the most compact bends-per-kilometre roads in the High Country.

SeasonSpring to autumn

Tight and quick, with a steady rhythm of linked bends through trees.

It is a popular link when riding between Bright and Mount Beauty, so you will often have company at weekends.

Check the surface after storms: leaf litter and washed gravel collect on the corners.
