Escapegoat Adventures

Trust us, the riding in the Adelaide hills is awesome and is only now starting to get the reputation it deserves as a world-class MTB destination. We have literally hundreds of km’s of trails all through the hills, with some key trail centres like Craigburn Farm, Eagle MTB park and Fox Creek, along with a network of other lesser known linking trails. And all of it is super-accessible from the city!

But obviously, to get the best out of the area, you really need a little local knowledge, and that’s where we come in!

Let us show you the best trails around, over 5 awesome days. Fox Creek, Sturt Gorge, Shepherds Hill, Mt Lofty and Eagle mtb park, amongst others. We will also get a chance to spend a day exploring the trails and hitting the wineries, breweries and beaches of McLaren Vale. And all just a short ride or drive from the city.

Ride during the day, swim in the ocean at our beautiful beaches in the afternoon, and explore all Adelaide has to offer in the evening. Then repeat….

Ride from the summit of Mount Lofty on mountain bikes all the way down to Adelaide, though stunning native bush, and enjoy a visit to Cleland Wildlife Park along the way. Spot koalas in their native environment, and see kangaroos and emus during the ride. We will also explore trails by bike which have only just been opened to cyclists.

It's downhill all the way.

Come along and enjoy a beautiful day of exploring the hills and vineyards of South Australia by bike along sections of the Kidman Trail- and don’t worry, we will take the sting out of the climbs by starting at the highest point in the area and riding mostly downhill!

Explore Kuitpo Forest, discover some of the region's finest wineries, local produce lunch platter, ride along the Kidman Trail, flexible tour options- depending on the group we can also visit micro-breweries, cafes, chocolate shops and more!

Come and explore the Flinders Ranges by bike with Escapegoat Adventures! We specialise in small group trips to the heart of the Flinders Ranges. ‘Flinders Ranges by bike‘ is a 200km cycle adventure, which starts at Wilpena Pound, and takes in some of the most stunning areas of this amazing location. The loop, created by local land owners, takes you through private properties as well as national park land, and covers sections not normally open to the public. It links parts of the Mawson Trail with an existing network of old pastoral trails on each property.

It takes 4 days to ride, with an average of 50km a day, and a good level of fitness and mountain bike experience is strongly recommended! Whilst much of the trails are fairly striaghtforward, there are also sections that are technically more challenging, and novice riders will need to test themselves! You will need plenty of stamina, but a reasonably fit rider should have no problems. Vehicle support is also provided by our 4WD.
