Office, Milton

Termeil

Mountain Rd
Allow: Three hours

A scenic ride from Milton to Termeil which avoids the
narrow, busy Princes Highway. Its disadvantage is the
long climbs up to the Pigeon House Mountain turnoff;
once you complete the climb, you are rewarded by
magnificent views, and an easy ride down to Termeil
through quiet, unspoiled bush.

Bike Shops, emergency spares: nearest Ulladulla (see p 6).
Variations on this route/alternative activities: 1. Return to Milton via the Princes Hwy to Ulladulla
(always busy, no shoulder in parts), then follow Ride 63. (Total riding approximately 53 km).
2. For a very full day, from Termeil complete Ride A28 (Termeil, Merry Beach circuit), and then return to Milton by the Princes Hwy (as above - total cycling 85 km). Because of the rough fire-trails between Termeil and Merry Beach, a mountain bike or hybrid bike is recommended for this variation.
